Rippberger is currently in pre-production as the producer of The Inventor, a stop-motion feature film written and directed by Jim Capobianco, the Oscar-nominated writer of Pixar’s Ratatouille.[9]

In 2016, Rippberger’s feature documentary 7 Days in Syria, which follows journalist Janine di Giovanni’s 2012 trip to Aleppo, was screened at Britain’s House of Lords.[10] The film has played in over 50 cities worldwide, on television in Denmark, Sweden, and China, and via streaming service Hulu.[11] The documentary is currently available via Amazon Prime and other VOD providers. The film was well received by critics and personally championed by United Nations Special Envoy Angelina Jolie.[12]

Rippberger went on to executive produce Alive and Kicking, a documentary about swing dancing, which premiered at the 2016 SXSW Film Festival to a Grand Jury nomination, and was released in 2017 by Magnolia Pictures. Alive and Kicking was named the film to watch by The New York Times watching section, received a 100% rating on Rotten Tomatoes, and was invited to be part of the 2018/19 American Film Showcase, the State Department’s diplomacy through cinema program.[13][14] The film is currently available on Netflix.

In 2011, Rippberger co-created a seven part documentary series published by The New York Times interviewing politicians and world leaders regarding the world’s biggest crises.[15] He was the 2012 recipient of the Dan Eldon Activist Award for producing and directing A Ride With Matt, later retitled Breaking the Cycle, a documentary feature about Huntington’s Disease.
