Our Fiscal Sponsorship Program, launched on September 1, 2015, enables The Redford Center to support more impact film projects in a less hands-on capacity. As a fiscal sponsor, The Redford Centers role is to make sure our filmmakers are spending grant funds appropriately, and to support them in the filming process so that they can create work that helps change the world. 437344 Clean Energy Initiative/HAPPENING production: In November 2013, The Redford Center convened thought leaders across many disciplines to help refine the style and substance of our Clean Energy Innovation Project. Entering this gathering with a desire to help re-frame the moribund public dialogue on climate change solutions, we found a diverse array of stakeholders from Big Business and politicians to clean-tech start-ups and cutting edge marketing firms yearning for a more engaging message to better reflect the current state of affairs in clean energy: a reality that contains better pathways to hope and engagement. Better technologies are finally achieving better economics, resulting in a new energy gold rush that has the potential to blunt the full impact of climate change.Using our established documentary storytelling expertise and leveraging the Redford brand and networks, the Clean Energy Innovation Project is developing an expansive communications platform for this clean power movement. At the center of the effort is our film, HAPPENING., which will premier on HBO in early 2017. Film production ramped up in 2015 with numerous film shoots across the US, and we are planning a robust public engagement and impact campaign to accompany the films release. 185600 Colorado River Initiative (Raise the River & Watershed): The Colorado River Initiative includes the Raise the River and Watershed projects. Raise the River is a coalition effort comprised of The Redford Center and five other U.S. and Mexican NGOsEnvironmental Defense Fund, Nature Conservancy, National Fish and Wildlife Foundation, ProNatura Noroeste, the Sonoran Institute. The Redford Centers education and advocacy efforts on behalf of Raise the River are centered on the award-winning, Redford Center-produced documentary WATERSHED, which has been screened more than 500 times in a dozen countries, has been selected to run at more than 52 film festivals and won numerous awards, had its broadcast on Pivot TV in spring of 2014, and has been picked up by several educational and online distributors, including Netflix, iTunes, and Amazon.com. Thanks to WATERSHED and The Redford Centers media efforts, Raise the River achieved its first $10 million fundraising milestone at the end of 2015. Funds raised to date have resulted in more than 110,000 trees planted, 680 acres of habitat restored, and 3.2 billion gallons of water acquired to help revive the Ecosystem. Raise the River continues to raise awareness about the threats to the Colorado River and its Delta, offering solutions and hope for the water future of the American West. 1277261 true true false false false false false false false false true false false false false false false false false false false true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false true false false false false true 48 0 false 4 true false false false false false false false false 0 false false false false false false false false false false X 7 7 true false false false false false false true true false false true true true true false false true true false CA X X Jill Tidman 4152608438 PO Box 29144 San Francisco CA 941290144 Jill Tidman Secty,Treasurer 40.00 0.00 X X 140050 0 0 James Redford President,Chair 8.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Jeremy Smith Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Jonathan Kaufelt Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Kirby Walker Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Robert Redford Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Chris Kelly Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Neda Nobari Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 140050 1 false false false 0 883542 883542 Bill Nye Film Kickstarter 776815 776815 Licensing Fees 247625 247625 Reimbursements, Refunds 3110 3110 Royalties, DVD Sales 4113 4113 Screenings 3669 3669 1035332 24 24 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1918898 1035332 24 X 0 0 101975 101975 0 140050 101536 18207 20307 0 57560 31571 20720 5269 0 0 15547 10572 2954 2021 0 0 14953 14953 0 0 0 163060 74090 38301 50669 5331 3625 1013 693 10505 8380 2125 6019 4093 1144 782 0 7043 4789 1338 916 18093 12712 1576 3805 0 0 0 0 4053 4053 11615 11615 Bill Nye Documentary Film 611458 611458 Happening.
