VC Milestone: 5,000 Members!
VC just hit 5,000 members! 🥳 And it's been an amazing ride, y'all.
Back in 2015, a handful of documentary journalists came together to talk about the industry over drinks. Little did they know that this first gathering would spark the creation of a global nonprofit that's now at 5,000 members, in 350+ cities only nine years later!
VC was started to fill the need for community and support—beyond borders and backgrounds and cultures—in this ever-changing industry. And now, our shared passion for growing together and pushing the boundaries of nonfiction storytelling is what keeps us strong. Here’s to a future with a thriving video journalism and documentary filmmaking scene: one that's sustainable, generous, and equitable, and one in which creatives have all the resources they need to tell bold stories that catalyze change. 🥂
We're excited to continue nurturing this community and working hard to bring our shared vision to life, together.
