IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy3Grp/Desc0Youth Media and Education - FilmNorths Youth Media Programs work with youth, both in and out of schools. The mission is to teach filmmaking as a means of engaging kids in their educationdeveloping artistic, critical thinking, and career skills while examining issues in their own environments. The program scaffolding provides youth with various entry points to filmmaking and opportunities to thrive as they develop their skills, employ their talent, and interact with professional filmmakers. All programs employ teaching artists who illuminate the art, technology, and business of media arts. Along the way, youth improve skills in communication, working within a group, leadership, and critical thinking. In-school residencies are the primary entry point. JuiceMedia is an after school filmmaking collective that takes place in FilmNorths dedicated youth classroom. Summer camps focus on animation, screenwriting, music video, fashion photography, and documentaries. FilmNorth Academy provides a several week, film school styled experience for youth aged 17-24. Alumni from the Youth Media Education programs apply for paid internships, and as youth progress through the programs and become proficient in filmmaking, they are employed as assistants to professional filmmaker mentors to work on new projects. Over 800 youth served annually.
