GhostCorp Apparel - resurrecting iconic corporate ghosts.
Carry a piece of socially minded entertainment history with a Participant Media Backpack. Founded in 2004 as Participant Productions, the company connected commercially viable storytelling with issues that mattered, then expanded into television and digital projects. Its journey included TakePart, Pivot, and films such as Spotlight and Green Book. For longtime viewers and collectors, this design nods to a distinctive era when a media company brought advocacy and popular culture into the same conversation.
Founded in January 2004 in the United States by Jeffrey Skoll as Participant Productions, the company set out to make commercially viable entertainment connected to social issues. Its early slate included American Gun, Syriana, North Country and An Inconvenient Truth. In March 2008, it changed its name to Participant Media to reflect expansion into television and other media. The company developed film, television and digital projects, and created the TakePart website and Participant Television division. In 2013, it launched the Pivot cable channel and Participant PanAmerica, a division for Spanish-language film production. In 2015, David Linde became CEO; that December, Participant joined Steven Spielberg, Reliance Entertainment and Entertainment One in creating Amblin Partners. Participant acquired digital brand SoulPancake in 2016, while Pivot and TakePart closed that year. In 2017, it earned B Corp certification and partnered with Lionsgate on international film distribution. Its films included Green Book and Spotlight, which won Best Picture Academy Awards. On April 16, 2024, Skoll announced that Participant would cease operations after two decades, ending development of new content and dismissing nearly all staff.
