Manfrotto will be a sponsor of the 2005 All Roads Photographers Program. In connection with National Geographic's All Roads Film Project, this program recognizes and supports talented photographic storytellers from around the world who are documenting their changing cultures and communities through photography.

The 2005 All Roads Photographers Program is a key component of the All Roads Festival, which is designed to recognize, support, and spotlight the next generation of photographers and storytellers who have been documenting their changing culture and community. Manfrotto is proud to be a sponsor of this National Geographic initiative.

The Festival provides a forum for indigenous and under-represented minority-culture filmmakers and photographers to showcase their work to a global audience and share their unique culture and experiences through exhibitions, panel discussions, and workshops.

The All Roads Festival, an event comprised of cutting-edge film, videos, live music, art, and a photographic exhibition, will feature work from the program's 2005 awardees. Featured artists will include: Marcela Taboada, Sudharak Olwe, Neo Ntsoma, and Andre Cypriano. Awardees will receive, among other prizes, photographic equipment from Manfrotto.

The 2005 Festival will be held in Hollywood, CA, September 22-25, 2005 and in Washington D.C. September 29-October 2, 2005.
