Summer '23 Production Cohort Info Session

​Ready to move your media project forward?

Our free production cohorts provide a support system for media makers with a story to tell. Our cohorts are open to individual media makers, teams and nonprofits interested in creating video work in a supportive community setting. Join us at Open Signal to learn more about this opportunity from Community Media Cohort Facilitator Melissa Salazar and our Community Media team. We'll cover the timeline, application process and expectations for the program. Read more about the cohort here.

The cohort supports storytelling rooted in the lived experience of communities that have been historically excluded from mainstream media:

• Those who are Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC)
• English-language learners
• Those living with disabilities
• Those living with low incomes (find more information here — low income is defined as at or under 80% of median income for your household size)

Work one-on-one with an Open Signal facilitator to determine your project needs — we offer training on video production (including post-production), equipment kits for check-out, and biweekly check-ins with your facilitator. Your facilitator will help you move through the production process and tailor our media education to your story. Applications for the Summer 2023 cohort are open May 5th - 19th​. The cohort will run from July 2023 through November 2023.​​
