Community
Film is a communal art. We cultivate a community of prayer that not only affects the quality of our work, but the quality of our hearts. Compass takes as a key guiding principle that we are more organism than organization. When all is said and done, it is people who make films—people working in community and with common purpose. It is people we are looking to affect. It is people we are looking to form.
Compass Film Academy is its people.
