Cultivating the next generation of Black girl storytellers from script to screen!
关于我们
Black Girls Film Camp is a 501c3 nonprofit organization that provides a FREE, national, and virtual 12-week experience (held once a year) where high school Black girls across the country pitch a story idea, and a final ten are selected to have their short film project produced by the program. Over 200 Black girls across the country applied for the 2022 camp and 10 finalists were selected to direct and develop their own short films. The camp is an incubator for the 10 girls and each of their films.
Participants receive free technology (iPads, ring lights, wireless mics, tripods, etc.) free software (final draft and adobe premiere), a personal production team of exemplary Black women creatives (editor and creative coach) contracted out by the camp, an all-expense paid weekend retreat in LA, and free workshops from Black women that are award-winning filmmakers and Ph.D. scholars. Films created by the teen girls and their production teams are showcased live during a virtual event over the summer and at film festivals (i.e. 2021 Mill Valley Film Festival) and college events (i.e. Emory University, USC, UNCC, etc.) in the US throughout the year. Following the 12-week camp, alumni participate in international outreach events throughout the year to share their stories with the world and support other aspiring young Black girl filmmakers.

Film & TV Production Major ? Award Winning 2024 Black Girls Film Camp Teen Director ? 2024 Point NBCUniversal Flagship Scholar ? 2025 EICOP Finalist ? DC Filmmaker of the Month
I just read a press release for the 2025 Pan African Film & Arts Festival (PAFF), which kicks off tomorrow, and felt a new wave of pride. What an honor for my short film, As You Are, to be selected — and it’s screening on my birthday! ?? PAFF (“the largest international Black film festival in the United States,” founded in 1992 by Hollywood veterans Danny Glover, the late Ja’Net DuBois, and Ayuko Babu) is an Oscars qualifying film festival for the categories of: Best Short Narrative Film, Best Short Documentary, and Best Animated Short. And the “films chosen for this year’s festival represent the bold creativity, diverse perspectives, and profound storytelling that define the African diaspora. They challenge us to think deeply, dream beyond limitations, and celebrate the richness of our shared humanity.” Congrats to all of the filmmakers participating, but especially my Black Girls Film Camp, Inc. sisters, Alexandra, Kyla, and Emerie, whose films are also screening! Happy Black History Month!

Writer, producer and actor who tells stories with positive impact! Event Production (Virtual/Live) and Film Production
I’m so proud of the incredible work we do at Black Girls Film Camp, Inc.! From helping our girls write, produce, and direct their own short films, to seeing them shine on stage at festivals like Essence, Bentonville, and Mill Valley, their growth is nothing short of amazing! Whether it’s watching them interview industry icons like Blitz Bazawule, Ruth Carter, and Cree Summer during our fireside chats, celebrating their acceptance into top film schools like NYU Tisch School of the Arts, University of Southern California, Savannah College of Art and Design, Loyola Marymount University, or seeing their excitement as they screen films internationally at festivals like Diversity in Cannes, our girls are stepping boldly into their creative power and we love to see it! This Giving Tuesday, I’m raising funds to keep this vital work going in an age where the rollback of diversity initiatives have made securing funding increasingly challenging. ?? DONATE today https://lnkd.in/gfgdKEfE Your support provides resources like mentorship, cameras, and life-changing opportunities for these talented young filmmakers. Together, we can ensure Black girls continue to tell their stories, claim their space in the film industry and change the world! Donate today and be part of OUR journey! Every gift makes a difference! Thank you for your support!
