We mentor future cultural leaders.

WHAT

Our weeklong intensive camp is the heart of our year-round support and opportunities. Designed for the most promising young filmmakers, songwriters, and entrepreneurs from around the globe, the program provides a dedicated space to explore and master the art of storytelling. Participants refine their craft through focused mentoring, hands-on instruction, and the creation of new scripts, songs, or pitches—all while pushing personal boundaries.

By week’s end, filmmakers shoot their own short film, songwriters professionally record a newly written song, and entrepreneurs present polished elevator pitches alongside completed videos. Campers leave not only with the tools to excel in their craft but also as part of a deeply connected, supportive community.

WHO

With the help of talent scouts and dedicated staff, we select 20 of the most gifted teens (ages 13-18) to join camp. Some boast millions of YouTube hits, vast followings, or major Hollywood roles, while others, from places like Australia, Mexico, Germany, Canada, or the UK, shine through a script or song they’ve crafted. Casting camp is as intentional as casting a film, aiming to create the perfect blend of established and emerging artists who, together, form something greater than they could achieve alone.

WHERE

For the past several years, our flagship camp has taken place in Leavenworth, WA, a charming Bavarian-themed mountain town 2.5 hours from Seattle, known for its character and natural beauty. This year, the Film and Music Camp will be hosted at the serene Tierra Retreat Center, nestled in the tree-lined Chumstick Canyon. Innovator Camp, meanwhile, will take place just an hour outside of Las Vegas.

WHY

How can we change the world quickly?

We believe storytelling holds a unique power to inspire and transform. Our mission is to positively influence the next generation of changemakers. By identifying future Spielbergs from around the globe and helping them refine their craft, embrace social responsibility, align with strong values, and find their authentic voices, we’re building a synergistic network of “prodigies” poised to reshape the future together.

HOW

This level of training, with a high mentor-to-student ratio, would typically be cost-prohibitive for most. To keep tuition affordable and provide scholarships for deserving students, we rely on donations, grants, sponsorships, and volunteers. As a 501(c)3 nonprofit, we invite anyone who shares our belief in the transformative power of storytelling to support our mission.
