“Mi Voz: One Community, Many Voices”,
is a YDI after-school program that involves youth in all aspects of filmmaking.
Subjects include: directing, scripting, acting and operating sound and video equipment.
Through a series of lectures and hands on trainings, youth gain important developmental
skills in problem solving, critical thinking and work ethic. Other benefits include:
improving self-confidence, fostering creativity and teaching a means of expression.
Some current successes include: “The Day the World Ended”, a short comedy that was accepted
into the New York International Film and video Festival. “A Day at the Ditch” won
2nd place in the 2004 Governors Cup and the Audience Choice Award in
the 2004 Alibi Film Festival.
