“I didn’t think I was capable of working in film.  But after participating in the Fresh Films program, I know I can.”

Angelica Ramon, 17 years old

The Projects

Hands on is how you build pre-production (planning the film), technical knowledge (lights, camera, audio), and editing skills.
By the end of the program, you’ll have a portfolio of film projects!

• Film a social video and a movie scene for a Paramount + film
• Make a Music Video for a real band
• Develop a Documentary with Roku—and have a chance for it to premiere on The Roku Channel!
• Produce a competition show—think American Idol or America’s Got Talent!
• Create your short film with Sony Pictures
