Mission and Program Overview

Mission

Firelight Media is a non-profit organization dedicated to developing talented documentary filmmakers who tell stories about people, places, cultures and issues that are under represented in the mainstream media. Firelight Media's flagship program is the Documentary Lab, a mentorship program for emerging diverse producers. Participating producers work with award-winning filmmaker Stanley Nelson and his team of senior producers, writers, editors, new media, and fundraising specialists to complete their projects for a national broadcast. Firelight Media started the Producers' Lab as a way to provide infrastructure support for diverse producers to help overcome some of the barriers to completing their film or video.
