When I founded For Impact Productions, impact producing was a burgeoning field, and there needed to be more understanding of the opportunities in galvanizing film, media, and entertainment audiences to build awareness and action on critical social issues. Today, when we create strategic plans incorporating the passion and vision of the art with pragmatic objectives and calls to action, audacious ideas for social impact galvanize resources and reach.
Undeniably, our world and ways of living and relating are evolving at lightning speed, with our challenges more complex than ever. In our organization, we see art as a messenger to the world, referring to issues and experiences of the times. Art and artists of all kinds hold powerful magic wands to help humanity move forward through societal problems, allowing us to make sense. What we find most compelling is that art can communicate and illustrate the grayness, complexity, and nuance in social problems… an imperative for solutions and problem-solving.
Our mission at For Impact Productions is to foster this purpose for art and creative works by creating a ripple effect of social and cultural impact. We help artists and creators get their work made and launched so they can help and positively impact others with their art. By providing strategy, impact campaign planning, and outside-the-box tools for funding and support, artists and creators are better equipped to play their part in solving societal problems. From a macro perspective, we consider society and societal challenges as our customers; this tunnel vision drives our work every day.
My future vision for For Impact Productions is to expand our clientele to creators and artists of all mediums in countries around the world. Beginning in 2025, our work will scale to equip even more artists with impact-producing strategies and tools to serve more people. We will launch new offerings such as webinars, online courses, and workshops and continue our core advisory practice.
