Steve Burns, How Documentary Story-telling Has Changed. A View from a Veteran Channels Executive by Peter Hamilton published on 2019-11-26T18:42:23Z Steve Burns is a veteran programming executive for Nat Geo Channel and Discovery Networks, and lately for CuriosityStream. He is a multiple Peabody + Emmy Award winner. Steve describes on how the documentary form has evolved over the decades. He begins by reflecting on our recent loss of Yves Jeanneau, the co-founder of Sunny Side of the Doc, who remained committed throughout his career to the documentary as an agent of social change. After covering trends across the Unscripted spectrum from big budget international co-productions to character-led scripted reality, Steve concludes by saying that in the Streaming Era, the documentary has returned to Yves Jeanneau's original vision.
