More about BGFC:

"Black Girls Film Camp (USA) provides a FREE, national, and hybrid 16-week experience (held once a year) where high school girls across the country pitch a story idea, and a final ten are selected to have their short film project produced by the program. Finalists are selected each year as the new cohort to direct and develop their own short films. The camp is an incubator for the ten girls and each of their films.

Participants receive free cameras and tech equipment, free software, their own professional production team of exemplary creatives (editor, production coach, cinematographer, and an alumni coach) contracted out by the camp, an all-expenses-paid weekend retreat in LA or Atlanta, and free workshops from award-winning filmmakers and Ph.D. scholars. Films created by the teen girls and their production teams are showcased during Black Girls Film Camp Premiere Weekend over the summer and at film festivals, colleges/universities, and community events worldwide."
