In 2025 we granted out over $200,000 to short and feature film teams. In addition to the financial support with our funding, we also offer filmmakers services as follows:A) Mentorship & Consultation Services/Office Hours: our mentorship and consultation service started at the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, when Field of Vision first offered virtual "office hours" for the documentary community, providing over 200 meetings to filmmakers around the world partially in response to the ever-changing landscape of our industry that was exacerbated by the pandemic. To date, we have taken over 450 meetings globally and have since re-launched this mentorship and consultation program twice to offer a broader range of support, allowing us to collaborate with other organizations and institutions within the documentary and filmmaking community to widen the scope of our free service. This program is now made possible by the generous support of NYSCA. In the most recent round, we collaborated with our dear friends and partners at Firelight Media and FWD-DOC: Documentary Filmmakers With Disabilities, DCTV, Squeaky Wheel Film & Media Art Center, Museum of the Moving Image, and Youth FX.B) Digital Security Clinic: Field of Vision continued its partnership with Freedom of the Press Foundation (FPF), an organization at the forefront of advancing digital security best practices in journalism, to host the 2025 installment of the free digital security clinic for documentary filmmaking professionals, featuring group training and individual consultations. For the fifth round of the Clinic, time was spent time digging into high-priority concerns filmmakers have around protecting footage, communication, devices, and field work.C) IF/Then Shorts: a fund and mentorship program for short documentaries that supports storytellers in breaking barriers to access, exposure, and sustainability in the media landscape. IF/Then Shorts continued to support their active and alumni filmmakers in 2025. Several new filmmakers were brought into the fold at the beginning of the year through an accessibility-focused initiative. Those teams received one-on-one mentorship, and film festival and distribution guidance throughout the year, and several went on to premiere at top-tier film festivals globally. 1059112 true true false false false false false false false false false false false false false true false false false false false true false false false false false true true true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false true 20 0 false 8 true false false false false false false false 0 false false false false false false false X 3 2 false false false false false false false true false false false true true true true true true true true false DE NY X Kristen Fitzpatrick 9178280276 767 Broadway 1117 NEW YORK NY 10003 Charlotte Cook President & CEO 40.00 0.00 X X 251620 0 21200 Kristen Fitzpatrick Managing Dir. 40.00 0.00 X 192648 0 23442 David Bralow Secretary/Treas 5.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Matt Wolf Board member 5.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 444268 44642 2 false true false 0 49500 615000 664500 Film investment income 711300 82429 82429 Program service fees 711300 1046 1046 83475 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 747975 83475 94000 94000 21180 21180 127250 127250 0 488911 249344 239567 0 667105 340224 326881 38818 19797 19021 77888 39724 38164 83339 42503 40836 0 23074 9230 13844 18050 7220 10830 0 0 0 13802 5521 8281 33287 33287 302 302 0 474 474 0 40409 40409 0 0 0 0 0 26623 3993 22630 Computer supplies and IT 23506 5876 17630 Staff training and meetings 15259 15259 Award Campaign and festival 9013 9013 Meals and entertainment 4033 4033 10958 6034 4924 1817281 1059112 758169 0 5325962 4212789 0 0 109326 104078 0 0 0 0 17305 14771 0 0 0 50000 163800 0 0 5502593 4495438 48536 110687 48536 110687 X 212421 4077251 5241636 307500 5454057 4384751 5502593 4495438 -1069306 X true X false true false X 9278111 286500 664500 10229111 0 0 9278111 286500 664500 10229111 0 10229111 0 0 0 10229111 X 0.00000 RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED X Part X : FIN48 Footnote The Organization has adopted the provisions of the Financial Accounting Standards Board's ("FASB") ASC Topic 740, Income taxes, relating to accounting and reporting for uncertainty in income taxes.
