As an ancillary task for my documentary project I had to produce a magazine article/extract on my final product. In the run up to this I did some online research to find out about some of the existing documentary magazines out there.
DOX - European Documentary Magazine
DOX is the leading European magazine focusing on documentary film.
DOX gives you insight into the latest developments in the international documentary scene and includes:

WHY POVERTY?: THE DOCS
In whose interest is it to maintain poverty? DOX looks at three films from the new Why Poverty? series that are meant to make us question and discuss poverty.
CPH:DOX - ART:FILM
A new international platform for art and film. Works of this nature must be careful not to develop into a metaphysical morass, a soupy incomprehensible mess, to the point of total disengagement.
THE BEST OF 2012
Tue Steen Müller shares his list of 11 docs.

DOK LEIPZIG: THE HUMAN CONDITION
Creative documentaries that push the envelope, which feel like movies and could easily "pass for fiction films". Strong political content with a distinct artistic vision and creative storytelling.
ANIMADOCS: A NEW GENERATION
At DOK Leipzig: Today more creative techniques like comics, drawings, puppet animation, photographs, graphic novels and paintings, indicate the growing recognition of animation as an art form.
ESSAY-FILM: CRAIG BALDWIN
The high priest of found footage free association has made a three decade career of imploding the very notion of the documentary form. We get the California-born iconoclast to reveal the imaginative method behind his chaotic collage creation.

From looking at these articles I found inspiration on how to address my project and the concept behind it. Modern documentaries tackle very hard hitting and difficult subjects so you have to make sure the write up and products surrounding it match the content for the film to have its desired effect.
