Reel Earth Films

Our planet is changing rapidly, and it cannot speak for itself. Many of the world’s iconic species are either threatened with extinction, or face threats from environmental factors and loss of habitat. As reported by the IUCN Red List of Threatened species, 41,000 species face the threat of extinction, roughly just over a quarter (28%) of the assessed species on earth. The power of film coupled with highly engaging stories can propel messages of hope and inspire action amongst humankind for the future of our planet. Reel Earth Films is dedicated to producing high quality and impactful films about the natural world that will inspire and connect world-wide audiences to the beauty and wonder of our planet, and engage them to be involved in its conservation and preservation.

Reel Earth Films brings a voice to these countless species that are in dire need of public awareness and education. Through our network of filmmakers and storytellers, we will create compelling films that reach global audiences, working towards generating the critical awareness some of these rare and imperiled species require in order to gain a foothold towards recovery.

Reel Earth Film is raising funding to tackle these questions and produce films that address these issues. Our strategy is simple - raise funding and produce films that achieve our mission and goals of changing the hearts and minds of people around the world to fall in love with nature.

As an organization, our five year financial goal is to raise one million dollars consistently each fiscal cycle in order to cover our administrative expenses, but more importantly to produce the films that will bring about and facilitate the changes we are working towards. As a film organization committed to changing the hearts and minds of people to fall in love with nature, our films will be hard hitting, and impactful.

We are uniquely positioned to carry our our mission and strategy based off of the connections we have in our industry, and being a nonprofit, our ability to reach further than normal methods of natural history filmmaking, we can truly make an impact with measurable outcomes.

Reel Earth Films was only recently organized in 2022, so we are only just now getting started towards achieving our goals and outcomes we seek to create. Our first film has already screened at several film festivals, and has picked up several awards, and is making a difference for wolverine conservation in the State of Oregon.
