What is Impact Production?
Impact Production is a specialized field that has developed over the past 18 years.
Initially emerging from the world of documentary filmmaking, it has since broadened to encompass a wide range of creative disciplines, including XR (extended reality), theater, writing, and more.
This profession focuses on creating strategies and campaigns designed to maximize the societal influence and reach of creative projects.
Our program will equip you with the essential skills to design and implement effective impact plans and campaigns.
