Silver Bullet Productions
Preserving Native culture and inspiring youth through award-winning educational filmmaking
Silver Bullet Productions (SBP) is a nonprofit educational film company. We have been using film as a vehicle to preserve and promote Native culture and history for the past 20 years. SBP empowers Native youth through the teaching of filmmaking and engages communities by producing network-worthy, award-winning documentaries that reflect the authentic Native experience, culture, and heritage. In this inclusive way, SBP contributes to New Mexico's education and to help grow future filmmakers who can tell their own stories or participate in this media industry.
It is an honor to tell stories that educate, challenge stereotypes, and preserve the rich heritage of New Mexico's tribes. SBP's Board of Directors is comprised of half Native Americans; all of our Advisors are Native American. We are honored by the respect of tribal leaders, historians, and teachers. The highest standards of accuracy, authenticity, and respect for traditional boundaries guide each project.
