Filmmaker contributions received by ACTBLUE

$1,451,336 in itemized individual contributions is the join between occupation FILMMAKER and ACTBLUE (C00401224). That cell covers 21,147 contributions from FEC.gov individual filings. The occupation grouping totals $5,442,487 across all recipients, so this committee is 26.7% of that labeled money. FILMMAKER is a self-reported title, not a studio treasury and not the DIRECTOR occupation key.

Key figures

  • ACTBLUE received $1,451,336 from Filmmaker-coded individual gifts across 21,147 contributions.
  • The Filmmaker occupation grouping totals $5,442,487, so this committee is 26.7% of that labeled money.
  • About $69 per contribution is the mean of 21,147 itemized lines, not a unique-person count.
  • FILMMAKER is a filer-entered title, not a studio treasury and not the DIRECTOR occupation hub.
  • Source: FEC.gov itemized individual contribution aggregates. Not independent expenditures.

Filmmaker meeting ActBlue as a conduit

FILMMAKER is the grouped occupation string. ACTBLUE is committee C00401224. PRODUCER, DIRECTOR, and FILM PRODUCER are other keys if stored separately. Matching rows sum to $1,451,336 across 21,147 contributions. The occupation hub is $5,442,487 to every committee in the aggregate. The committee overlay includes every occupation, not only Filmmaker. This tie page exists because those two dimensions meet; it is not a restatement of either hub.

Tens of thousands of itemized lines at a two-digit mean describe many modest earmarks, not a studio PAC. The join key is the occupation string plus committee ID C00401224. It is not a finding that a trade association, employer, or candidate bundled the gifts. Filers listed FILMMAKER; the receipts are attributed to C00401224 in this table. Occupation labels are filer-entered. FEC.gov does not audit job titles against licenses or payroll. PRODUCER and DIRECTOR, if used, sit in other hubs. This join is FILMMAKER only.

About one-quarter of the Filmmaker grouping

The Filmmaker occupation grouping shows $5,442,487 in itemized individual money. The ACTBLUE cell is $1,451,336, or 26.7% of that total. The remaining $3,991,151 went to committees other than C00401224. Opening only this tie would hide that remainder. A 26.7% ActBlue share still leaves most Filmmaker-coded dollars at other committees.

Filmmaker keeps the $5,442,487 grouping and its other recipients. ACTBLUE keeps C00401224 volume from every occupation. All occupations and All FEC ties list sibling occupation–committee cells so this join is not mistaken for a company PAC or for independent expenditures.

21,147 contributions through C00401224

ACTBLUE received $1,451,336 from Filmmaker-coded receipts across 21,147 contributions. Dividing dollars by gifts gives about $69 per contribution. 21,147 lines are not 21,147 unique people. Repeat givers, multiple earmarks, and cycle stacking raise the contribution count. The packet does not publish a unique-donor figure for this cell. A mean near $69 is arithmetic. Credit on a released film is not certified by FEC.gov.

The source note is explicit: these figures are FEC.gov aggregates of itemized individual contributions grouped by occupation and recipient committee, not independent expenditures. Committee-to-committee transfers and unitemized gifts are outside the $1,451,336 total. C00401224 can function as a conduit; this join still stores the committee as the recipient on the itemized line.

Director as a sibling, studio treasuries, and awards

A 26.7% share of Filmmaker-coded dollars into C00401224 does not mean the occupation caused an election outcome, and it does not mean ACTBLUE is the occupation’s only political destination. Occupation and committee are reported together. The overlap is descriptive. Federal awards on USAspending.gov are a different ledger; this page does not claim donations funded awards. Do not treat the join as a studio contribution or as a box-office ranking.

Quote $1,451,336 as 26.7% of $5,442,487 into C00401224, with 21,147 itemized lines, source FEC.gov, and stop there. Do not add sibling occupation keys. Do not fold independent expenditures into the cell. Do not treat 21,147 contributions as a headcount of people currently holding the job. This page is not a DGA or PGA membership roster or a DIRECTOR occupation total.

How to cite Filmmaker × C00401224

A complete claim names Filmmaker and ACTBLUE (C00401224), then $1,451,336, 21,147 contributions, and 26.7% of $5,442,487, source FEC.gov. Keep both sides of the name whenever the dollars are quoted. The occupation hub still holds $3,991,151 outside this committee. This page isolates the overlap for readers who need both the title and the committee, not either hub restated.

A DGA or PGA membership roster would be a different object. DIRECTOR is a sibling occupation hub, not this total. All occupations ranks sibling titles. All FEC ties lists other occupation–committee pages. Original filings remain at FEC.gov. Mean gift $69 is $1,451,336 divided by 21,147 lines, and the occupation remainder outside C00401224 is $3,991,151. Repeat the four numbers together: $1,451,336 into C00401224, 21,147 contributions, 26.7% of $5,442,487, committee ACTBLUE.
