Battle of the Bards

Made by: Patrick Fenn

Synopsis

Performance poet Master Duncan competes to be crowned the thirteenth Bard of Bath, a title with roots in ancient Celtic and Druidic culture.

More Info

The Bard’s role is to promote the Bardic tradition through talks and performances and to celebrate cultural heritage.

In this documentary I really wanted to focus on story and employ a three-act structure, so there is a strong central character with a goal established early on and a clear narrative arc.
