Class Description

Description

Impact Producing is an emerging field in the film industry that uses issue-driven films as catalysts to create social, political, or cultural change through advocacy and engagement. Just as films have producers to manage the creative and financial process from script to screen, they also increasingly need Impact Producers to take the film campaign from production to impact.

The course is taught by Cecilia R. Mejia, a producer and Social Impact Producer, who teaches a semester-long version of this class as an adjunct professor at NYU.

This hands-on class will guide participants through the essentials for becoming an Impact Producer for both documentary and narrative films by identifying key skills and goals. Participants will learn the scope of work necessary for building allies and partnerships, creating and measuring successful campaigns, and transforming passion for social change into a viable career path.

What You Will Learn

  • Be able to identify the impact dynamics (the kinds of change) that film can drive.
  • Be able to write a strategic plan for an impact vision.
  • Be able to interpret, measure, and evaluate impact through analysis.
  • Be able to extend the life of a film through impactful conversation and discussions.
  • Be able to work and create change on the community level.
