Impact Campaigns and Grants

Impact Campaigns have been an important tool within the documentary landscape allowing filmmakers the opportunity to engage their audiences and leverage their films to instigate real change. 

For the past 3 years, Collective Eye Films has been proud to offer impact campaigns for a nominal expense on royalty for films already in our catalogue. These impact campaigns did not require filmmakers to pay out of pocket in a market where one might typically pay anywhere from $10,000 - $50,000. 

We’ve provided impact campaigns for films like Personhood, Food for the Rest of Us and The Business of Birth Control. These campaigns have brought about partnerships with organizations like ACLU, Planned Parenthood, and NAPW. 

As we transition into a new phase of supporting filmmakers in their distribution journeys, we will be looking at providing small grant opportunities.
