Frames Film Program
The Frames Film Program is a film production and life skills program that provides opportunities for young adults to learn the basics of filmmaking in a supportive, safe and fun environment.
Participants collaboratively create short film projects expressing their thoughts and ideas for change. In some cases, youth will conceptualize, film, and edit a film for a partnered non-profit organization to gain hands-on work experience and build community engagement.
Frames changed me to be more sociable and trust people. I had a lot of anxiety before, and now I feel way less anxious.
Frames helped open new career doors by providing skills and showing what is possible.
Before Frames, I never realized the story of the struggles other people had to go through.
Student Films
Each ten-week cycle focuses on a specific theme or topic in which the group produces a short film or Public Services Announcement (PSA) for a partnered organization. With the help of the filmmaker facilitator and notable film industry guest speakers, participants are taught essential filmmaking skills: from storyboarding and using a camera to editing in Adobe Premiere Pro.
Special Guests
The Frames Film Program introduces its participants to all aspects of filmmaking, including interacting with professionals in the industry.
