Partnership Proposal
Now in our fourth year of the Bright Mountain Film Tour we are looking to build partnerships with like minded brands to help take our event into the future.
WHAT IS BMFT
The Bright Mountain Film Tour (BMFT) is a celebration of mountain culture and those who embrace it. Given the world wide success of events like Banff Mountain Film Festival and the European Outdoor Film Tour it was time for Australia to have its own. Bright has become the epicentre of mountain sports in Australia with visitors from around the world enjoying everything the area has to offer. The BMFT is not just a film festival, it’s a community celebration. We inspire local adventurers and support local adventure film makers; in showcasing the best adventure films from around Australia and the world. When choosing the films for our tour, our primary focus is on Australian films. We pride ourselves on featuring Australian made films and supporting Australian adventure film makers.
WHO IS BEHIND BMFT
This is not just another franchised film festival. The guys behind BMFT will not only be selecting the feature films, but selling you tickets at the door, chasing up unpaid debts and starring in questionable promo videos. We’re passionate outdoors enthusiasts, filmmakers and marketers who inspire others to get outdoors and amongst it.
Phill Robichaud
Born from an egg on a mountain top, in the darkest corner of Canada. The Hype guy speaks funny, but knows all there is to know about the outdoors. Being raised by squirrels has its advantages.

Eddie WILSON
He’s kind of a big deal. People know him. The Wordsmith of the trio and the purveyor of all tourism based activities in NE Victoria. He raises his pen by the power of GraySkull and wheelies like a champ.

Ric Williamson
Eyes of a hawk, strength of a bear. The man behind the lens and brain child of BMFT. If there is film idea being considered, chances are Ric has already seen it. Some say his Laksas are so good one mouthful and you’ll wake up in South East Asia.

BMFT ANNUAL VIEWERSHIP
The Bright Mountain Film Tour started three years ago as a way to fill a hole in the market. We knew there was a craving for an Australian Adventure film tour, what we didn't know was how quickly it would be adopted. In three years we have already reached capacity at the Alpine Shire screenings, with many of our audience coming back for their second and third times. It's time to expand into the bigger markets. We are going to start locally in Victoria but in the next five years would like to take the Bright Mountain Film Tour around Australia.
WHY CREATE PARTNERSHIPS
We can't do this alone. We can bring the creative content and the enthusiasm. We can manage the logistics and run fantastic film events but to reach our true potential we need partners who share our love for the outdoors. We need partners who love sharing the outdoor experience. We need partners who share the STOKE, the high-fives, the laughs, the triumphs and the tragedies. We need partners to help us inspire more people to get outside and get awesome.
We already have some amazing brands and businesses from our local Alpine Shire who have supported us from day one and we are not about to forget who they are. The relationships we have forged with these local business owners (and their staff for that matter) are everlasting and we are excited about the opportunity to promote their brands and services to a broader audience when we take BMFT on the road.
By sponsoring BMFT, you are not only aligning your product with an engaged audience with a propensity to spend; you’re supporting a truly unique local film tour. We have conquered Alpine Shire and now it is time to hit the road. We want to take BMFT 4 to Melbourne and a few regional centres to spread the spirit of adventure far and wide. But we are going to need your help to make it a success.
SO WHAT CAN WE DELIVER YOU
We don't want your money, we want your love. Well that’s not entirely true.
We are looking for like minded partners that share our passion and want to see more people outdoors.
Your sponsorship will be used directly to pay for film licensing and marketing. This will enable us to select a great program of top-shelf adventure films and help contribute to the success of the event.
