(FHP) provided production consultations to independent documentary filmmakers, including filmmakers Matt Yoka, Robb Moss, Elisabeth Subrin, Kira Akerman, Jacob Kornbluth, Eric Rockey, and many others. Consultations focused on fund-raising, archival research, story, and producing concerns. Sam Green also consulted with the writers Dana Spiotta and Saul Austerlitz about book projects involving documentary. In addition, Sam Green, the treasurer of the FHP, spoke to students at Pratt and St. Francis College and also taught master classes for young filmmakers at the University of California, San Diego and in Athens Greece through the US Embassy there. The organization continued its long-running outreach efforts with the feature-length film, The Weather Underground, including university, high school, and foreign screenings as well as domestic, international, home and educational distribution. As part of these efforts, the Free History Project also settled a long-running legal complaint against Fox News for copyright violation stemming from its use of material from the film. The Free History Project raised money for an annual grant for women filmmakers called The Sarah Jacobson Film Grant. In 2015, the FHP received a record 150+ applications and gave out two grants for a total of $5,000.The Free History Project served as fiscal sponsor for Caveh Zahedis film project The Bachelor of Utopia Parkway. Mr. Zahedi submitted grant applications to the NEA and NEH thru the FHP. FHP also fiscally sponsored Mark Decenas documentary Not Without Us. In 2015, the FHP continued to distribute The Universal Language, a 30 minute, educational documentary on the history of the invented language Esperanto. The FHP focused on distributing the film through direct downloads from a website created for the film, as well as educational collections and university libraries. The FHP also shot and edited a pro-bono video for the Esperantic Studies Foundation and Princeton professor Esther Schor detailing a summer course on Esperanto at CUNY in NYC. In 2015, the FHP distributed The Measure of All Things, a live documentary collaboration with the bands yMusic and The Quavers. The film includes live narration and a live score at each screening. The piece premiered in January 2014 as part of the 2014 Sundance Film Festivals New Frontiers program.
