Yeah, it's a bit dated and lacking any real pith (possibly a self-to-organization opportunity to exploit) the following article suggests filmmakers may benefit from hunting down our local NPO to secure projects.
http://www.ssireview.org/articles/entry/reel_impact
The "Collaborating With Filmmakers" segment seemed rather stylish without substance, but maybe it's that weakness we could use to our advantage when educating NPO decision makers about what we have to offer their cause.
440 words out of a 551 word article just to get to a short blurb at the end:
(Word count fluff intro)"So how can nonprofit leaders hook up with filmmakers? For starters, they can identify and reach out to production companies that have distributed documentaries related to their programming. Nonprofit leaders can also attempt to cultivate relationships with filmmakers who seek their support. Organizations such as MediaRights.org and Working Films are attempting to facilitate just those kinds of connections."
I hate writers paid by the word and the editors that permit such rubbish.
Whatever.
Getting over it.
Anyway, the point is that if you hunt down your local NPOs you might shake some fruit loose.
GL!
