Amplifying Local Voices

Community Supported Film’s vision is driven by the knowledge that peace, prosperity and democracy depend on a well-informed citizenry. Our mission is to help citizens make responsible decisions about their community, country and world by providing access to stories rooted in local perspectives.

What We Do

MISSION

Community Supported Film (CSFilm) amplifies local voices in under- and mis-represented communities to effectively communicate their lived realities through documentary filmmaking. Their films are used in local and international Screen&Discuss campaigns to inform public opinion and policy from town halls to the halls of congress.

We strengthen communities by:

  1. Building local capacity in documentary filmmaking and video-journalism.
  2. Mentoring the production of engaging social issue stories.
  3. Using these films in Screen&Discuss campaigns that inform public opinion and policy from the grassroots up and the inside out.

VISION

CSFilm believes that injustices and hardships are best understood by those local to the issues. We know that if the public learns about people’s challenges from the local perspective, they are better able to demand the right actions from their governments and to support effective humanitarian responses.

The predominance of news and information about others, however, is still produced by outsiders and informed by external self-interest. If crisis, disaster, or war came to your town would you want the world to be informed by locals or outsiders?

Our answer is grounded in the knowledge that high quality locally produced stories provide well informed insights, for concerned citizens and policymakers, into sustainable paths to a more equitable and peaceful world.

STRATEGIES

Collaborations

We seek to work with other organizations and communities to develop and implement projects that are in line with our mission. Our ideal is to support projects that are locally defined and lead.  We are eager to hear from you about how our training, film production and public engagement model can be used to strengthen voices in your community and thereby better inform others about local issues and needs. Please see Voices in Partnership to learn about collaboration.

Initiatives

We also initiate projects which focus on people, places and situations that the US public hears a lot about in the news but seldom understands from the local perspective – as we have done in Afghanistan, Haiti, and the US. In collaboration with local media and community organizations we conduct trainings that strengthen local capacity and in the process produce a collection of films that can be used in the US to inform opinion and ignite action.

Who We Are

Michael Sheridan

Filmmaker, Educator and Director of Community Supported Film

Michael Sheridan is a filmmaker, educator and activist whose documentary films address issues of social and economic development and the tipping point between order and chaos.  For nearly 20 years Michael has engaged the public in stories from Asia, Africa and the Americas about people in poor and developing communities challenging the status quo and struggling to improve their lives.

In 1996 he co-founded Oxfam America’s documentary production and since then has worked to break new ground in the effective use of media to educate and change policy.  He has taught documentary filmmaking for 25 years at the community and university level and from 2007-08 served as a Senior Fulbright Scholar in Indonesia.

Michael founded Community Supported Film in 2010, and also runs his filmmaking company SheridanWorks. Community Supported Film seeks to take the foreign out of foreign correspondence by providing intensive training in documentary filmmaking to storytellers and activists in conflicted and developing communities.   Their stories are screened in public engagement campaigns to educate concerned citizens and policymakers about sustainable paths to a more equitable and peaceful world.

    Endorsements

    Testimony from New Immigrant and Refugee Visions (NIRV) trainees:

    “Getting to watch an editor allowed me to think as an “editor” while filming.”

    “I’m a totally new person on video camera. It’s good to know the basic function of a camera in the first week.”

    “I learned about general storytelling and basic principles of filmmaking. I learned the importance of holding the camera for seven seconds; thinking as an editor; analyzing the story and the different approaches to covering. I also learned how to use the tripod, our friend…”

    “The 7-second rule is something great to have learned. It will change the quality of the film I will shoot in the future.”

    “The lessons I have learned here are above my expectations – the explanations and the way the training is conducted is very exciting.”

    “The training is interactive and open to participation by all members. It is not one of those conventional one-way approaches to learning.”

    “I thought it would be hard to communicate and to be understood. But I was wrong! I feel very understood.”

    “I feel that this is a unique opportunity to be here and also bonding and learning and being open/curious about each other’s culture. We all worked well with the different groups we teamed up with.”

    “People are serious about this project. … Everyone is working hard, and even though we came from different parts of the world, we speak different languages, and have different cultures, we are very comfortable and productive as a team.”

    Comments on the Afghan-made films, The Fruit of Our Labor:

    “[Community Supported Film] put cameras in the hands of Afghans and gave them training to make films about their lives.  The result is an unprecedented intimate look at Afghan life with exchanges no outsider has been privy to before.”
    — Robin Young, Host of NPR’s Here and Now

    “We are all bombarded with so many mainstream media images of Afghanistan that are totally lacking an authentic voice. The Fruit of Our Labor fills that void. Connecting to Afghans trying to live with dignity and compassion under such horrific circumstances shatters so many of the incorrect underlying assumptions that have been a huge part of the problem, even for those sincerely trying to help the Afghan people. What Americans need to see is that the Afghan people are just like the American people. Both are trying to make the best lives they can for their families and communities.”
    — Journalists and documentary filmmakers Paul Fitzgerald and Elizabeth Gould, authors of “Invisible History: Afghanistan’s Untold Story” and “Crossing Zero: The AfPak War at the Turning Point of American Empire”

    “Michael Sheridan is a filmmaker and educator who has done some extraordinary work in Afghanistan, helping Afghans to tell their own stories thru film. Last night we had a screening at First Parish in Needham of some of the short films from Afghanistan. The quality and beauty was stunning.”
    — Reverend John Buehrens, former President, Unitarian Universalists Association

    “I’ve made a film in Afghanistan.  I’ve seen the results of other trainings. Nothing compares to what your trainees have accomplished.”
    — Carol Dynsinger, Professor, NYU Tisch, Academy Award winning filmmaker, Learning to Skateboard in a Warzone

    “The first time in ten years I’ve actually heard an Afghan’s voice,” “Transformative,” “Eye-opening and Disturbing” — comments from audience surveys

    Testimony from Afghan trainee’s evaluations:

    “I have lived some of the most fantastic weeks of my life. This training is equipping me to make a difference in the future.” — Abdul, Water Ways

    “Documentary filmmaking is my medium of choice for communicating the realities in Afghanistan. This training is giving me the knowledge I need to pursue this work.” — Reza, Searching for a Path

    “This training, besides teaching documentary cinema, encourages coexistence. People from different backgrounds and ethnicities are sitting around the same table. It’s amazing.” — Qasem, Death to the Camera

    “This training is teaching me to discover my true potential.” — Mona, Bearing the Weight

    “Revealing the realities of Afghanistan has been a dream of mine. Now I have a chance to realize this dream.” — Aqeela, The Road Above

    Comments on Community Supported Film:

    “CSFilm is a vital new way for indigenous vision and voices to be seen and heard on the world media stage and in their own communities.”

    — Nathan Felde, Chair of the Visual Arts Department, Northeastern University
