Film The Change You’re Creating
WorkCabin Films is always interested in taking on new conservation documentary projects. We are particularly drawn to conservation organizations with projects that are science-driven, showcase field research, species recovery work, habitat restoration work, Indigenous-led conservation, etc.
Have a Story to Tell? Let's Talk
How the process works
At WorkCabin Films, we’re always excited to explore new conservation documentary and video projects anywhere in Canada. We’re especially drawn to stories rooted in science; think field research, species recovery programs connected to the Species at Risk Act, habitat restoration, Indigenous-led conservation efforts, and more. Basically, if it’s a powerful, untold, or underrepresented conservation story, we want to hear about it.
How are projects funded? We Can Help
Documentary film budgets can vary a lot — anywhere from $5K to over $40K. Do you already have some funding in place? Or do you need help finding grants or other sources of support? Knowing what kind of budget or funding you have helps us get a clearer picture of what’s possible.
What are the timelines?
As a busy conservation filmmaking crew, our schedule fills up quickly with field shoots and ongoing projects. The more lead time and flexibility you have, the better we may be able to collaborate on bringing your story to life. We carefully consider each submission and will follow up if we see a strong fit with our mission and production capacity.
We’ve filmed a documentary in as little as three days, and as long as two years across multiple field seasons. It all depends on the depth of a story.
