Murnau silent feature film.
The current pandemic situation didn’t allow for a large public dedication but instead, local government representatives attended a photo opportunity with the sign at the dedication. Continue reading... “Athena Joins The Oregon Film Trail”

Congratulations to, John Waller’s Uncage The Soul team with their winning pitch – “Teens In Trees” – the Outdoors and Health Film Grant 2019-20 was awarded this week. This new grant, provided by the #OregonMade Creative Foundation, and in conjunction with Travel Oregon, offers $15,000 in funding to make a short film that explores the notion that spending time outdoors can improve health outcomes for us all.
Oregonians and visitors are inspired by nature. It feeds our souls and enriches our well-being. We instinctively know that a life spent outdoors, is a life well spent indeed. Not coincidently, it also turns out that taking time off to explore and spend time in nature can heal us.
The successful Outdoors Film Grant project will tell a unique story that correlates the effects of spending time outdoors with better health and well-being.
