Color of Threads continues to make waves

After its strong start in the independent film circuit, the Center for Media Ministry’s short film “Color of Threads” continues to make waves.

Written by Josie Henderson, WWU alumna, the story follows five women who move to the Pendleton Valley in 1909 in an effort to rebuild their lives.

The production offered valuable experience to 15 students of the WWU film program who assisted in filming during the summer of 2023, working alongside professionals to gain industry knowledge. Since its release in the spring of 2024, the film has won fourteen awards, seven of which come from The Telly Awards, a global competition that recognizes a standard of excellence in video and television. Each year, 13,000 entries are received and judged by over 200 industry experts.

As the film continues to grow, the CMM is offering “Color of Threads” screenings to schools or churches upon request, and Matthew Webster, producer and director of studio operations for the Center for Media Ministry, is available to lead discussions on filmmaking, storytellings, and the themes of the film.
