Film School Friday
ABOUT
Film School Friday is Reel Works' weekly gathering for NYC teen filmmakers. Every week looks different: talks with industry pros, hands-on workshops, screenings, or events led by our Youth Ambassadors.
You don't need to be in a Reel Works program to join. If you're curious about filmmaking, this is your space to connect with other young storytellers, build real skills, and get inspired.
