Deep Down participates in REEL Engagement Workshop
The Deep Down team were proud to be among a group of environmental filmmakers recently gathered in Bolinas and Berkley, California to collaborate on the powerful art of storytelling as a tool to create change at the grassroots and national levels for a clean energy future.
The five day retreat, “Reel Engagement for the Energy and Natural Resource Revolution” was sponsored by the Fledgling FundChicken and Egg Pictures, and Working Films to bring together films from around that world that collectively tell the story of extractive industries, dirty fuels, and the catastrophic impacts of global climate change while offering narratives of hope for a people-powered clean energy revolution.
