The Impact of the Film Industry on Ecological Conservation
ANFFF Global Ecology Filmmaker Forum
This forum will feature 3-4 leading natural documentary filmmakers from various countries, who will discuss the profound impact of the film industry on ecological conservation.
The event aims to promote international co-production of nature and ecology-themed films and explore strategies to broaden access to funding and opportunities for filmmakers. Discussions will cover topics such as cultural differences in past international film projects, overcoming challenges, and identifying areas for development to increase the likelihood of securing commissions for both independent studios and production companies.
