It produces cinematic work that tells the stories of our world from new perspectives. Inspired by past projects such as World in Action and Life magazine, FoV's work includes individual short and feature-length films, episodic series, thematic approaches to a single topic by multiple filmmakers, deep-dive investigations pairing filmmakers with journalists, rapid-response assignments, and collaborations with artists across mediums. FoV is committed to short-form documentary films because this form allows filmmakers to respond quickly, take creative risks, reach wide audiences, explore new ways of storytelling and make films with a faster production cycle. FoV's films are distributed through a variety of outlets, including news organizations, film festivals, online platforms, broadcast, streaming and cable. Through fellowships and production support and agreements, FoV provides filmmakers the necessary support and resources to create their films. 2192345 1588068 The Press Freedom Defense Fund provides support to journalists and others to pursue legal fights where a substantial public interest is at stake. Through grants (often paid directly to expert legal counsel who agree to provide representation at reduced/capped fees) and educational outreach to support established and non-traditional journalists and news organizations, the Fund opposes official action that restrict press freedoms and seek source information or journalistic materials. It is one of the few programs that supports whistleblowers and other journalistic sources. 25931936 1 1 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 1 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 1 0 0 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 1 236 0 1 85 1 1 1 1 BR 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 3 1 1 0 0 0 1 1 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 0 0 1 0 AL AK AR CA CO CT FL GA HI IL KS KY MD MA ME MI MN MS MO NH NJ NM NY NC ND NV OH OK OR PA RI SC TN UT VA WA WV WI X David Eichler 9174776500 114 5th Avenue 18th Floor New York NY 10011 Pierre Omidyar Director/Chair 2.00 X X 0 0 0 Jeffrey Alvord Director/Vice Chair 2.00 X X 0 0 0 Pat Christen Director 2.00 X 0 0 0 Andrew S Wilson Treasurer 40.00 X 0 0 0 David Bralow Secretary 40.00 X 308701 0 51011 Michael Bloom President 40.00 X 0 0 0 Kate Myers Executive Director, Revenue Operations 40.00 X 182813 0 24990 Charlotte Frederick Managing Editor 40.00 X 180003 0 33146 Roger Hodge Deputy Editor 40.00 X 174630 0 44530 Charlotte Cook Creative Director 40.00 X 158142 0 6935 Elizabeth Reed Editor in Chief 40.00 X 427418 0 50355 James Risen Sr. National Security Correspondent 40.00 X 286728 0 19222 Ryan Grim Washington Bureau Chief 40.00 X 234707 0 31148 Peter Maass Senior Editor 40.00 X 192985 0 52877 Lynn Dombek Research Director 40.00 X 169608 0 45933 Jeremy Scahill Co-founding Editor/Sr. Investigative Reporter 32.00 8.00 X 282992 71608 58313 William Fitzpatrick Former Director/Secty 10.00 X 0 0 0 Kathleen Baumann Assistant Treasurer 0.00 40.00 X 0 314200 41204 2598727 385808 459664 36 1 1 0 Enzuli Managment LLC 114 5th Ave 18th Floor New York NY 10011 Journalism 490620 Arnold & Porter Kaye Scholer LLP 601 Massachusetts Ave NW Washington DC 20001 Legal Services 299117 Atlantic Freeholds One California St Suite 2500 San Francisco CA 94111 Rent 225103 Markay Media LL 303 Watts St Durham NC 27701 Film Production - "Burden of Proof" 225000 Praxis Films Inc 205 Hudson St Suite 1004 New York NY 10013 Film Production 180553 5 32550130 32550130 The Intercept 512000 64480 64480 Field of Vision 512000 1969 1969 66449 48435 48435 2625 0 2625 2625 Merchandise 453220 2484 2484 Advertising 541800 1712 1712 4196 32671835 66449 4196 51060 X 1640594 1640594 64000 64000 136545 136545 2598727 2598727 7212300 7064570 147730 941204 929311 11893 700276 695638 4638 306077 306077 744440 734904 9536 86289 18289 68000 1650937 1650937 451456 321791 129665 164035 124851 39184 285819 243875 41944 6016607 6374372 -357765 565078 503697 61381 148022 148022 279950 279832 118 Other (video prod) 800876 800876 Other (edit) 782597 782597 Other (freelance) 506401 506401 Other (photo) 146008 146008 389102 314121 74981 26617340 25931936 685404 0 13801016 19404337 14477 138085 2644348 67821 488438 949430 545426 488973 404004 4227503 0 0 18599790 23079212 3085355 1725522 3085355 1725522 X 2791541 21353690 12722894 0 15514435 21353690 18599790 23079212 X 6054495 -215240 X 0 1 X 1 0 X 34882970 10351395 13375526 32550130 91160021 34882970 10351395 13375526 32550130 91160021 56108285 35051736 11506 2858 116488 195862 48436 375150 5045 252661 173395 73720 504821 92039992 504821 0.38080 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 0 0 0 0 10580 10580 0 392348 260169 132179 546502 274677 271825 404004 45514729 120000 12722894 12842894 32671835 0 32671835 26952580 120000 215240 335240 26617340 0 26617340 Part XI, Line 2d - Other Adjustments: Net assets released from restrictions Part XI, Line 4b - Other Adjustments: Realized gains on investments Part XII, Line 2d - Other Adjustments: Net assets released from restrictions Grants paid in 2019 1 South America 1 13 Internet news agency News reporting 314019 East Asia and the Pacific Social News Network Legal defense support 86545 Europe (Including Iceland & Greenland) Production Company Project Support 50000 1 13 0 0 1 13 450564 0 450564 East Asia and the Pacific PFDF Journalism legal defense support 86545 Wire Europe (Including Iceland & Greenland) To a documentary filmmaker for project support 50000 Wire 2 0 0 1 0 0 0 Part I, Line 2: Grantmaking is closely managed by managers of the grantmaking programs, as well as by FLM's legal and finance departments. For grants to foreign entities and individuals, pre-award diligence includes checking grantee leadership and individual grantees against Specially Designated Nationals /U.S. sanctions lists maintained by the Office of Foreign Assets Controls of the U.S. Treasury Department to confirm that payments are not prohibited.
