Our past programs

We have provided all-expenses-paid mentorship programs to emerging filmmakers and photographers across Africa, providing them with access to premium equipment and working with top-tier professional mentors throughout the program.

Our partnership with conservation leaders and tourism innovators maximized the impact of the programs and showcased Africa's biodiversity in different locations, encouraging creativity and inclusivity.

Our learning approach immersed aspiring filmmakers and photographers in real-world scenarios. This experiential method not only honed technical proficiency but also cultivated creativity and adaptability in storytelling. 

By bridging theory with practice, we ensure that graduates are equipped to navigate the complexities of their fields and contribute meaningfully to the global storytelling landscape.
