Support the Next Generation of Film, TV, and New Media Creators
One of ACMA’s core objectives is to provide educational opportunities and mentorship programs that inspire future generations of AANHPI filmmakers, producers, writers, directors, and media technicians.
TAKE ONE Media Arts Academy is an annual, hands-on vocational youth media arts training and internship program provided free of charge for underserved transitional ages 18-25 in Southern California. This program also includes those from other under-served communities who wish to learn about the AANHPI culture and/or pursue careers in the TV and Film industry.
By providing youth media creators from under-served communities an opportunity to learn hands-on television and film production vocational skills as well as gain valuable leadership, teamwork, and self-development skills, regardless of their financial background, we believe TAKE ONE can also foster a better sense of pride and self-identity within their communities.
We also encourage them to create original ideas and projects based on their perspectives and experiences that can inspire and shape the perspectives of others, which can also affect the futures of their communities. You can view previous Take One Projects and Short Films on our YouTube Channel.
Enrollment for the 2024 Fall Program is now available online through August 15, 2024. CLICK HERE to Enroll.
