Artemis Rising Foundation
A nonprofit organization and film and television production company focused on social-justice-oriented documentary and narrative projects.
Last updated August 26, 2026
Overview
Artemis Rising Foundation is a nonprofit organization and film and television production company founded by Regina K. Scully. Its stated creative focus is on documentary and narrative projects addressing social justice issues. Rather than operating as a conventional consumer brand, the organization functions as a mission-driven producer and supporter of screen projects whose subjects include sexual violence, institutional accountability, education, identity, technology, public memory, and social change. The foundation’s production record includes feature documentaries, narrative projects, and television programming. Among its documented film credits are The Invisible War, The Hunting Ground, The Breadwinner, Won't You Be My Neighbor?, Knock Down the House, The Truffle Hunters, On the Record, Ailey, and Bring Your Own Brigade. The organization has also been associated with projects such as The Square, Brave Miss World, The Tale, and The Great Hack. Its television work includes the PBS series College Behind Bars, the MTV projects 16 and Recovering, and HBO programs including The Vow and Allen v. Farrow. Several Artemis Rising projects have received substantial critical and awards attention. The organization’s documented production history includes films connected with Academy Award and Primetime Emmy wins or nominations, although the available reference material does not provide a complete award-by-award accounting. The Invisible War, directed by Kirby Dick, examined sexual assault in the United States military and became one of the organization’s best-known social-issue documentaries. The Hunting Ground continued a focus on institutional responses to sexual violence in higher education. Other projects broadened the company’s scope into prison education, childhood and family experience, architecture and community, art and cultural legacy, documentary ethics, and the effects of data-driven technology. Artemis Rising Foundation’s identity is therefore tied less to a single recurring product line than to a slate of films and television productions selected for social relevance. Its work spans both independently produced documentary cinema and projects distributed or exhibited through major cultural and television outlets. The organization’s publicly documented profile does not establish a separate consumer-products business, retail network, stock listing, or parent conglomerate. Its official website serves as the principal organizational presence, while the available encyclopedia material identifies the foundation primarily through its founder, production activity, and filmography.
History
Artemis Rising Foundation was established by Regina K. Scully as a nonprofit organization intended to produce documentary and narrative film and television projects with a social-justice orientation. The available reference material does not specify an exact founding year, place of incorporation, staffing structure, or funding model. It does, however, consistently describe the organization through its dual identity as a nonprofit and a screen-production company. Its filmography developed around documentaries addressing institutions, inequality, identity, cultural memory, and accountability. The Invisible War, directed by Kirby Dick, examined sexual assault in the United States military. The Hunting Ground focused on sexual violence and institutional responses in higher education. Other listed projects extended the organization’s range: The Square, directed by Jehane Noujaim, concerned political upheaval; Brave Miss World addressed the experience and advocacy of a sexual-assault survivor; The Tale, directed by Jennifer Fox, explored memory and personal trauma; and The Great Hack, directed by Noujaim and Karim Amer, examined the social and political implications of data exploitation. The foundation’s later credits include The Breadwinner, Won't You Be My Neighbor?, Knock Down the House, The Truffle Hunters, On the Record, Ailey, and Bring Your Own Brigade. These projects cover subjects including girls’ education and conflict, children’s television and cultural legacy, grassroots electoral politics, aging and rural livelihoods, allegations involving the music industry, the artistic legacy of Alvin Ailey, and wildfire preparedness and community resilience. The range of subjects indicates that Artemis Rising has not been confined to one documentary subgenre, even though social justice remains a recurring organizing principle. Television became another important part of the organization’s recorded output. Its credits include College Behind Bars for PBS, 16 and Recovering for MTV, and HBO productions including The Vow and Allen v. Farrow. These projects brought the organization’s interest in social institutions, personal experience, and public accountability into serialized and broadcast formats. The organization’s projects have received critical and awards attention, including Academy Award and Primetime Emmy wins or nominations connected with productions in its portfolio. The supplied reference material does not provide a complete list of awards, nomination categories, or dates, so those achievements are best understood as part of the foundation’s documented reputation rather than as a fully itemized awards record. No reliable information in the supplied material establishes a current executive roster beyond the founder, a precise headquarters, a legal parent, public ownership, or a present operating status.
