EMF TESTIMONIALS
 
"I really appreciate your directness and your perspective on what makes good cinema. To be honest, it's a breath of fresh air."

   Ben Henretig
   Founder & Creative Director
   Micro-Documentaries

"Where did Bob learn this stuff? He is akin to a fountain of sage advice and a bottomless well of connections. It is clearly Bob Silvestri's passion (and EMF's) to help the filmmakers of this world make the right decisions and as a result, make it - and the good Lord knows we need more like him.  He manages to be a true pioneer and a true averter of risk at the same time. And best of all? You can trust him."

   Caroline Harrison
   Producer / Director / Principal
   Red Hot Green China - China & the US in the 21st Century
   The Hive Studios

"Environmental Media Fund arranged a distribution grant at a critical stage in our project, and it made a big difference. They leave the drama for the films and know how to just roll up their sleeves and make things happen."


    Frank Green
    President
    Green TV

"The exemplary manner with which EMF accounts for the concerns of funders as well as the needs of filmmakers makes working with them a pleasure."

    Samantha Campbell
    The Campbell Foundation

"As an advisor, EMF is innovative, responsive and has had a major impact on our ability as a festival, to reflect trends and relevancy for the film and television industry. EMF has redefined the meaning of the advisory role, 24/7."

    Janet Rose
    Executive Director / Festival Director
    International Wildlife Film Center
    International Wildlife Film Festival & Montana CINE International

"Bob Silvestri has been a very successful partner in our endeavors (the Natural Heroes PBS series). EMF clearly has excellent relations with potential funders and a keen sense of which funders to approach for which projects."

    Nancy Dobbs
    President
    KRCB Television

"Environmental Media Fund fills a crucial gap in the media production cycle. Bob Silvestri is a "build a better mousetrap" kind of guy - always looking for fresh approaches and finding different possibilities and opportunities. And we are the very fortunate recipients of EMF's assistance."

    Steve Cowan
    President
    Habitat Media, Inc.

    Maisie Ganzler

    Ryan Britton
    Executive Director
    Earth & Sky

"I cannot recommend Environmental Media Fund more strongly. At every step of the way I found them to be thorough and precise, superb at follow up, expansive in their thinking, and most importantly a caring and sensitive partner in our efforts."

    Sheila Laffey, Ph.D.
    Producer
    EnviroFilms
    Adjunct Professor of Film
    Santa Monica College

   Joe De Francesco

"You saved my creative life."

    JW Winslow
