From Distribution to Audience Engagement

The Fledgling Fund is pleased to present a new paper, titled "From Distribution to Audience Engagement".  This paper, written by The Fledgling Fund Senior Program Officer Emily Verellen, explores the stages of distribution, outreach/strategic communications and audience engagement and connects each one to how it helps independent social issue film achieve social change.  Secondly, the paper outlines the importance of partnerships, how non-profits and filmmakers can work together and how those relationships can be mutually beneficial.  The paper also suggests key questions that filmmakers and their partners should be asking themselves about their work when planning for substantive audience engagement work.  We hope you check out the paper, here.
