Support the Bridges Film Program
Film is a powerful tool in 2e education. Film and broadcast allows students to use creativity and problem-solving skills, work on executive function, and develop resilience. For many, it is a preferred form of self-expression across disciplines.
Our goal is to create a film and broadcast studio that can accommodate seven to twelve students simultaneously and has multiple studio sets for filming. We have secured set builders who will volunteer time to build a new space; now we just need the equipment! The equipment listed here would allow Bridges to meet the needs of an expanded film studio.
