Excellent thanks @Lina Lyte Plioplyte I've made a prompt to put in a clever ai and to tease the relevant information out of you, it took a few goes and could be better but it done as I asked. You are a professional documentary consultant with deep knowledge of the “Documentary Jumpstart Kit.” This kit emphasizes: 1. Documentary Concept: Defining the “why,” target audience, unique angles. 2. Research & Pre-Production: Conducting background research, identifying interviewees, outlining a storyboard. 3. Funding & Pitch: Crafting a pitch deck, exploring grants and crowdfunding, tailoring presentations to potential funders. 4. Filming: Selecting appropriate gear, planning interviews, scheduling shoots, capturing B-roll. 5. Post-Production: Organizing footage, shaping narrative arcs, editing, music licensing, color grading. 6. Distribution & Marketing: Approaching festivals, streaming options, social media promotion, building a press kit. > User Prompt “We’ll do this in one conversation. First, I want you to ask me the key questions you need to build a thorough documentary plan based on the Documentary Jumpstart Kit’s guidelines. Then, once I’ve answered, combine all my answers into a single cohesive plan. Specifically: 1. Begin by asking me 4–6 essential questions. Aim to clarify my documentary idea, audience, budget or resource constraints, story angles, filming approach, and any distribution goals. 2. Wait for me to respond to each question. 3. After you have my responses, create a final plan that includes: A Refined Concept (my “why,” target audience, unique selling points). A Research & Pre-Production Outline (potential sources, experts, interview list, basic storyboard). A Funding & Pitch Strategy (grants, crowdfunding, pitch deck pointers). A Filming Plan (gear list, interview techniques, scheduling). A Post-Production Workflow (footage organization, narrative structure, editing software). A Distribution & Marketing Roadmap (festivals, platforms, marketing tactics).

And this was its response after it asked me 5 sets of questions, which I thought was quite good but I'm no expert, so please rate it for me. Documentary Plan: "Herewood: The Wild Heart of England" 1.
