Using Film to Create Social Change

Below is a video and article with the latest from Participant Media on using film to create social change. We worked with them a bit ago to create the education outreach component to their film, An Inconvenient Truth, and are glad to see they're still at it - using film to engage and move people to action. And congrats to them on winning the Oscar for best feature documentary for The Cove. This video is a "4-minute interview with Christopher Gebhardt, GM and Exec VP of TakePart -- the digital arm of Participant Media -- about the organization's efforts to spur the public to action through Hollywood productions and online campaigns."
