Beyond the Choir

Active Voice launched a multi-year initiative called “Beyond the Choir” (BTC) to systematically explore how it could help filmmakers connect with new audiences.

Specifically, filmmakers could get expert input on the issues their films treat, and policy advocates could get powerful stories that are connected to the change they’re trying to make. This report uses the case study of “Welcome to Shelbyville” to illustrate the approach.
