Our Mission

Bluem Pacific” comes unique with a mission to promote culture and positive storytelling through the eyes of our local filmmakers. Bluem also works to provide educational awareness opportunities,in hopes to broaden the skill set necessary for effective and positive storytelling through film.
Stories of culutre, environmental care, values and positive development, are the stories we want to tell our community !

Bluem ?
Blue + Bloom = Bluem

“Bloom” representing the growth stages of a beautiful flower, found only in the islands and “Blue” represents the ocean that connects our people of the Pacific. By fusing both words together, blue and bloom, we get one symbolic word that represents our mission perfectly“To inspire the development of a beautiful community here in the Pacific Islands”.

As we work to build this tiny film community here on island, I’m happy to say that within our community network, there is a lot of film productions coming through. BluemPacific is a grassroots initiative that works closely with our local community to help grow this art in promising direction. Special thanks to the Bluem Film Community Network: Guam Cinematographers Guild, GuamTalent, Guam Actors Association & PBS. This is a community effort !
Please feel free to invite those who you think would benefit most from this Bluem filmmaker’s gathering. There are a few film initiatives that are pulling from off island production support. Those initiatives will be discussed during the event. So spread the word to all film enthusiasts.
