Redford Center Inc

Collective action: to build a more connected and effective community of environmental filmmakers by strengthening our collective efforts and field infrastructure. We develop collaborative impact and educational campaigns, engage in field service, and create tools and resources that bridge gaps between filmmakers, the film industry, and environmental stakeholders. In 2024, we hosted a nature connection film pitch event at mountainfilm festival and began developing four new short films on the same theme. We also participated in 32 peer events, and readied to launch the pilot phase of our new bridging values film and screening program.

Ecosystem growth: to expand and deepen the support, resources, and opportunities for solutions-forward environmental films to be seen and valued as tools for education, engagement and empowerment and to be utilized, supported, and invested in at scale. In 2024, we developed our first film slate for distributors, began work on our first funder slate for donors, and released a 2024 redford center grants impact report and a watershed film case study.
