Impact is Essential
The Impact Field Guide — a collection of ideas, tools, and examples intended to clarify concepts, inspire new thinking, provide practical solutions, and spark audacity — will support you and your film to contribute to positive change in society. This version of the Impact Field Guide was made possible by the Ford Foundation.
The Power of Documentary Film
It’s a collection of ideas, tools, and examples intended to clarify concepts, inspire new thinking, provide practical solutions, and spark audacity. It reflects countless contributors, decades of collective experience, and a confrontation with errors and omissions that we’ve made in the past.
