EIF Studios will also develop and implement social impact campaigns for corporations and nonprofit organizations to support the release of films, documentaries, series and other long-form content.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/  a-font-body-m     \">\n\tEIF Studios will be led by longtime EIF executive Brian Gott. He manages EIF\u2019s strategic content partnerships with affiliate organizations, agencies, media partners and production resources, after having joined after a stint as publisher of <em>Variety<\/em>, where he spent 12 years. <\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/  a-font-body-m     \">\n\tEIF is not new to the space. Since 2020, the organization has developed and distributed more than 100 PSAs and produced numerous national broadcasts. Last year alone, EIF teamed with more than 25 organizations to develop and distribute content for partners like the World Food Program, Americares, USO, Alzheimer\u2019s Association, Save the Children, White House Historical Association, Veterans Administration, SoCal Fire Fund and the Hispanic Federation.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/  a-font-body-m     \">\n\tEIF has produced content that has received both Primetime Emmy and Peabody Award nominations, most notably its 2020 televised production, <em>Graduate Together: America Honors The High School Graduates<\/em>, aired across 43 network and streaming platforms simultaneously.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/  a-font-body-m     \">\n\t\u201cThe purpose of EIF has always relied upon utilizing the strength and reach of the entertainment industry to serve as a philanthropic engine, whether responding to disasters, economic empowerment, or cancer research. EIF Studios will allow us to shepherd important stories from around the world to reach an audience that can make a real impact on the outcome,\u201d explained EIF president and CEO Nicole Sexton.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/  a-font-body-m     \">\n\t\u201cBeing able to tell a great story is only part of the process. Finding that story\u2019s audience and getting a viewer to care enough about what they heard or saw to act is the other half. EIF Studios can do both by mobilizing the media and entertainment industries to provide world-class resources that are then used to highlight the causes their communities care most deeply about,\u201d said Gott, a Peabody Awards nominee and recent Television Academy Honors winner for his work executive producing <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.hollywoodreporter.com\/t\/disney-2\/\" id=\"auto-tag_disney-2_1\" data-tag=\"disney-2\">Disney<\/a>\u2019s <em>Out of My Mind.<\/em><\/p>\n<div class=\"post-content-image \/\/  \">\n<figure class=\"o-figure   size-large alignnone lrv-u-max-width-100p\" style=\"width:1042px\">\n<div class=\"c-lazy-image  \">\n<div class=\"lrv-a-crop-16x9\" style=\"padding-bottom:calc((466\/1042)*100%);\">\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p><\/div><\/div><figcaption class=\"c-figcaption  lrv-u-padding-tb-025\">\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"a-font-secondary-s lrv-u-margin-r-025\">An image of a USO billboard.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<cite class=\"a-font-accent-uppercase-xs lrv-u-color-grey-dark\">Courtesy of EIF<\/cite><\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"post-content-image \/\/  \">\n<figure class=\"o-figure   size-large alignnone lrv-u-max-width-100p\" style=\"width:2000px\">\n<div class=\"c-lazy-image  \">\n<div class=\"lrv-a-crop-16x9\" style=\"padding-bottom:calc((3000\/2000)*100%);\">\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<img class=\"c-lazy-image__img lrv-u-background-color-grey-lightest lrv-u-width-100p lrv-u-display-block lrv-u-height-auto\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hollywoodreporter.com\/wp-content\/themes\/vip\/pmc-hollywoodreporter-2021\/assets\/public\/lazyload-fallback.gif\" data-lazy-src=\"https:\/\/www.hollywoodreporter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Times-Square_credit-courtesy-EIF.jpg?w=2000\" alt=\"\" data-lazy-srcset=\"\" data-lazy-sizes=\"\" height=\"3000\" width=\"2000\" decoding=\"async\"\/><\/p><\/div><\/div><figcaption class=\"c-figcaption  lrv-u-padding-tb-025\">\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"a-font-secondary-s lrv-u-margin-r-025\">EIF partnered on a Delivering Jobs campaign featuring public service announcements and Times Square digital billboards to promote employment opportunities for people with neurodivergent conditions.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<cite class=\"a-font-accent-uppercase-xs lrv-u-color-grey-dark\">Courtesy of EIF<\/cite><\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><em> \u2018 The preceding article may include information circulated by third parties \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em> \u2018 Some details of this article were extracted from the following source www.hollywoodreporter.com \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Entertainment Industry Foundation is officially getting in the production and distribution business.
