The No Comment Film Fellowship, is a one year documentary and narrative filmmaking intensive. It began in 2016 when a group of self-motivated students voiced frustration over the lack of authentic high quality media content made for teens. Our team members worked with them to develop the program that would equip students to tell the stories that matter to them. Our program helps students (ages 16-19) learn to write, produce, and pitch their films; leaving the program feeling confident in their craft and with film samples for college entry or jobs. Since 2016, approximately 90 of our students have completed the program, are attending top film schools, and are pursuing careers in the creative industry.
