Feeling helpless about the devastating fires in Australia? Want to volunteer your storytelling and film production skills to help shine a light on the heroic work being done at the forefront of the fire battles? Us too.

We welcome any creative volunteer to join this Emergency Cause. That includes roles of ALL kinds, including:
FILMERS, EDITORS, WEBSITE DESIGNERS, SOCIAL MEDIA EXPERTS, MARKETING GURUS, VOICE OVER ARTISTS, GAPHIC DESIGNERS, OR ANY ROLE YOU THINK CAN HELP!

Not in the film production world, but would like to help? We’d love to hear from you!

HOW IT WORKS:

As volunteers sign up for this Emergency Cause initiative, we assess the information given and match them with one of our partnered Causes on the ground in Australia. This could be anything from joining a Crew to create a full promotional video for a local nonprofit, or pairing up with a person to edit existing photos and videos into a viral GoFundMe campaign.

For example, if you are an Editor who wants to help an Australian nonprofit involved in Animal Rescue, we will do our best to find a Cause in that category in need of your specific role.

Note: Because of the urgency of the situation, these projects will generally move faster than our normal pace. Crews for a Cause will also take a less active roll in the creative process, while still being able to provide our volunteers with any needs they may have. If you have any additional questions about our Emergency Cause process, please contact us.
