Corporate Video & Remarkable Storytelling: Corporate Video Filmmaker Thomas Clifford

Great Filmmakers 

My favorite videos and filmmakers

Reality Film

The basic goal of this site is pretty simple: To provide an online resource for documentary. Other sites are out there, and many of them cover recent news, festival information, general production issues, and even distribution. This site's niche will be more academic than practical for the moment, but hopefully that will change in the future.

Janson Media

We are also a DVD publisher and manufacturer with a growing collection of quality titles, ranging from children's and family films to award-winning documentaries and educational programs in the categories of travel, health and exercise, cooking, spirituality, history, pop culture, art, music, how-to, and self-help.

Alber Maysles

Two of America's foremost non-fiction filmmakers, Albert Maysles and his brother David (1932-1987) are recognized as pioneers of "direct cinema," the distinctly American version of French "cinema verité." They earned their distinguished reputations by being the first to make non-fiction feature films- films in which the drama of human life unfolds as is, without scripts, sets, or narration

Spiritual Cinema

The Spiritual Cinema Circle originally grew out of collaboration between film producer Stephen Simon and psychologists Kathlyn and Gay Hendricks. Stephen had produced many beloved movies with spiritual themes, such as "Somewhere In Time" and "What Dreams May Come," and had given hundreds of talks and seminars on the emerging genre of Spiritual Cinema. During that time The Hendricks had created a non-profit foundation dedicated to creating a new consciousness in mass media.

Public Interest Pictures

Public Interest Pictures is not just a documentary company. We're activists who make documentaries as an extension of our activism.

We're here to take on tough issues: tyrannical leadership, threats to democracy, and policies and practices at odds with-you guessed it-the public interest. It's not enough for us to "document" it. We want to change it. And we need your help.

Penneback and Hegedus

D A PENNEBAKER and CHRIS HEGEDUS form one of the most respected and unique teams of documentary filmmakers working today. Known for their unobtrusive, fly-on-the-wall style of filmmaking, they do not direct, nor interview for information. Using handheld cameras and available light allows them to observe without interrupting.

Robert Greenwald

Filmmaker and political activist Robert Greenwald is the director/producer of "Iraq for Sale: The War Profiteers" (2006), an expose of what happens when corporations go to war; as well as "Wal-Mart: The High Cost of Low Price" (2005), detailing the retail giant's assault on families and American values; and "Outfoxed: Rupert Murdoch's War on Journalism" (2004), about the right-wing opinion factory known as Fox "News."

Millions of viewers have seen these films via grassroots "house parties" and independent online DVD sales, a groundbreaking method of alternative distribution.
