Collaborations for Cause 2016
Sara and I were honored to again participate in Blue Earth’s Collaborations for Cause conference. The two-day event, held April 15-16, 2016 at Seattle’s downtown Library brought together change-makers, photographers, filmmakers, non-profits and communications professionals.
On Friday we gave a 30-minute talk on how storytelling can make science more inclusive and relevant to today’s challenges. A growing number of scientists are motivated to connect their information in a way that they think will be useful, and then collaborating with visual storytellers like us to help them reach their goals. We shared our recent film, High Hopes, as a case study as well as a couple of other recent projects.
As always, our favorite part of Collaborations for Cause was getting to meet an amazing cross-section of movers and shakers who are making a difference through storytelling. The next conference will be held May 5-6, 2017 in Seattle.
