# Social Impact Entertainment

Social Impact Entertainment (SIE) is a broad term for stories that incorporate educational, inspirational, or awareness-generating elements. SIE productions are defined by their impactful messaging within the storylines, whether prominently featured or subtly integrated to raise awareness about specific social causes. SIE productions are not just overt documentaries. An SIE production might simply have a diverse cast or director or highlight a specific geography or cultural element; and projects of any genre, content, length, or format can qualify as SIE. 

Ultimately, what constitutes SIE is determined by the investors, donors, or grantors supporting the production. They are passionate about the impactful aspects of the production, and they signal their support through direct investment or by converting philanthropic funding (from donor-advised funds, foundation grants, direct donation, etc.) into investment capital in the SIE production.
