Reel Creator

Help Us Launch Reel Creator — A Free Acting Class for Underserved Youth

Dreamer Studio is raising $10,000 to launch Reel Creator, a one-of-a-kind, tuition-free class that gives low-income middle school students the chance to learn on-camera acting, collaborate on original scenes, and leave with a professional acting reel and headshots — tools that open doors to real auditions and future creative opportunities.

This 3-week intensive will meet twice a week, and culminate in a filming weekend with professional filmmakers from the award-winning Nightwire Films team. Students will gain hands-on experience, confidence in front of the camera, and — most importantly — the sense that their stories matter.

Your donation directly covers:

🎥 Professional equipment

🧑🏽‍🏫 Stipends for teaching artists and support staff

🏢 34 hours of studio rental at the Matthews Recreation Center

📸 Headshots and fully edited performance reels for each student

We believe in creating equitable access to the film industry, and this campaign helps make that happen from the ground up.

Dreamer Studio is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit — all donations are 100% tax-deductible.
