Industry Hub

HIFILM is HIFF’s Industry Hub, a year-round industry track of career development programs for participants to learn and network with international and local industry professionals via panels, masterclasses, and special events. HIFILM continues HIFFs mission of building industry opportunities in the State of Hawai‘i that are sustainable locally and provide increased opportunities for API, NHPI and Pasifika communities in  spaces of independent film, branded content, unique film crew positions and film criticism and content creation. Developing Hawai‘i beyond its established film & tv industry optics of being “Hollywood’s tropical backlot” and into an authentic creative force.

This free HIFILM Panel–the first of a quarterly series of industry panels that delve into the many facets of local indie filmmaking–explores the importance of the IMPACT PRODUCER, a specialist who creates and manages social action campaigns, and are responsible for designing and implementing strategic impact and education strategies around social impact documentaries.
 
Storytelling has intrinsic properties – but what you do with that story is everything. Today, documentary filmmakers are reaching beyond the offer of traditional distribution on television or in cinemas to think about “Impact,” “Outreach” and “Engagement” campaigns. These are all words used today to describe the plans a film team puts in place to ensure that their film spurs change on an issue – where they are deliberate about who needs to see a film, what audiences need to do, and what partnerships, tools and resources are needed to reach the desired goals of the campaign. 
 
HIFF welcomes three filmmakers who have worn many hats behind the camera; from director to impact producer, as they discuss the importance and necessity of impact producing to amplify and bring awareness to their various film projects.
