Kim Schwarzkopf

Kim is a Seattle-based Filmmaker and Producer with over 20 years of experience in video production, specializing in live-action broadcast commercials, digital media, and corporate videos. She is also the writer and producer of “Emotional Tourist: Raising a New Generation” a short film that explores how we can increase peace and create nurturing, creative spaces for future generations. She thinks deeply about peace, what it means and what it takes to build a sustainable peace, so in 2014, Kim founded an innovative mentoring program called Across the Bridge, which recently won the Creative Economy Contest at the Seattle Film Summit. She envisions a world where, together, we can safely go "Across the Bridge" to explore and create opportunities in the film, music, and creative industries, and most importantly, help young people develop their own creative agency to share their stories with the world.
