Filmmakers, Tribes & Archive Collection Holders
Tribal Survey to Assess State of Media Archives

We need your help. We're asking Tribes, filmmakers and other collection holders to assess the state of archival media across Indian Country, a joint effort with ATALM. Complete our short survey. Even if you don't have any media collections, we ask that you at least open the survey and tell us. 

Vision Maker Media is concerned that we are losing important documentation of Tribal history and culture due to the changing nature of media and digitization. Running a professional archive with proper storage, climate control, access and records is expensive, but there are basic steps that can be taken to prevent further damage to old media and keep it safe. 

With funds from the National Endowment for the Arts and the San Manuel Band of Mission Indians, we have a Native Media Archives Guide that provides information on how to keep your archives safe.
Join Us for Filmmaker Training June 8-9
We're preparing for the 2016 Vision Maker Media filmmaker training in Oakland, California, an event that is a pre-conference workshop to ALLIANCE 2016, hosted by the National Alliance for Media Arts and Culture (NAMAC). 

Register for the VMM filmmaker training for just $200 per person. Those registered for this training also can register for the ALLIANCE 2016 conference for a special price of $100. Take advantage of both workshops for $300 total.

With major funding from the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, we are the premier distributor of work by and about American Indians and Alaska Natives to Public Broadcasting. Training is designed for project teams funded by Vision Maker Media, but anyone is welcome to attend.
