Documentary education is half our nonprofit mission at Carbon Trace Productions. We are dedicated to educating students on the diverse skills required of documentary filmmaking. Our nonprofit film studio in Springfield, Missouri, works primarily with students at Missouri State University but will work with any student anywhere with an important story to tell. Carbon Trace can provide significant guidance in developing, funding, producing, and distributing a documentary film.
