Thank you filmmakers!

Thanks in large part to a very generous community of independent documentary filmmakers, our DVD library is really starting to look impressive. We have had so many filmmakers contribute copies of their work to our collection making it, not only grow in size, but also reflect a wonderful diversity of film topics, styles, lengths, and techniques. 

Today I came into work to find another donation sitting on my desk—this one a package full of films by Seattle based filmmaker, Aaron Bourget.  If you can’t make it into our library to check out these DVDs you can watch selections of Aaron’s work on his Vimeo page here

We love, love, love receiving films from independent filmmakers, especially Northwest filmmakers! Thank you to Aaron and all of you who have donated to our special little library.

The Vision

To create a documentary resource center in Portland that will not only enhance NW Documentary’s educational programs but also serve as an asset to our entire community. Our unique collection of materials will include documentary films produced by local filmmakers, books and resources on the subject of documentary production, local music for use in our student’s films, and organized links to online films and educational resources.

The Library @ NW Documentary will support and promote our organization’s mission to encourage and inspire local storytellers by providing access to this special collection of materials and resources.
