Expanding Climate Action in Atlanta Through Filmmaking
Good Work is a new Atlanta-based digital series, produced in partnership between After the Fact Impact (ATF) and Documentaries Don’t Work, our narrative-first climate media studio. The series follows Cali, a young Black woman whose life unravels after a chaotic firing and the unexpected community, chaos, and purpose she finds along the way. Climate isn’t the story; it’s the setting, woven into the real pressures shaping work, identity, and daily life in Atlanta.
We are proud that the writer of Good Work was discovered through the inaugural Carbon Copy Pitch Competition, an initiative we launched in partnership with Climate Film Festival to surface new voices using narrative to shift climate culture. Her pitch stood out for its sharp character work, comedic tone, and ability to address climate-adjacent themes through relatable storytelling rather than didactic messaging.
To deepen the impact of this series, ATF is launching the +Impact Hub:
Our $5,000 Campaign
To bring this initiative to life, ATF is raising $5,000 to fully fund the +Media Impact Hub
All contributions are tax-deductible and directly support impact strategy, creator training, and community-centered storytelling in Atlanta.
Production Timeline
We are currently in pre-production, with writing underway and principal photography scheduled for March 2026 in Atlanta.
We hope Good Work and the +Impact Hub will demonstrate a new model for climate storytelling that centers character, comedy, community, and career pathways, while building measurable impact beyond the screen.
The +Impact Hub
Through a partnership with Plus Media, we are building a customized +Impact Hub to accompany the series. This interactive platform will provide curated resources, audience actions, and measurable analytics that help translate engagement with Good Work into real-world climate and community impact. This 6-month digital hub serves as the infrastructure for tracking how narrative content inspires awareness, conversation, and behavioral shifts.
