The Center for Environmental Filmmaking at American University's School of Communication was founded by professor Chris Palmer on the belief that powerful films, images, and stories can play a key role in fostering conservation and bringing about change.
We are committed to raising awareness and empowering action through the innovative use of media. Our mission is to inspire a new generation of filmmakers and media experts whose commitment to environmental stewardship drives them to produce creative work that is informative, ethically sound, and entertaining---and that makes a positive difference.
