A collaborative storytelling methodology rooted in community voice, equity, and impact.

Inspired by participatory action research, Participatory Action Filmmaking (PAF) shifts filmmaking from extraction to collaboration.

Instead of telling stories about communities, we build films with communities.

This service supports filmmakers, nonprofits, universities, and cultural organizations in designing film projects where participants are co-creators, shaping narrative, process, and outcome.

Formats Available:

• 45 to 90-minute festival workshop

• 2–3 hour intensive

• Multi-week cohort lab

• University residency

• Nonprofit consulting engagement

Who This Is For

Build a digital home your people actually want to gather in.

Communities don’t grow from features. They grow from intention.

I help creators, artists, nonprofits, and organizations design and launch community platforms that foster real engagement, belonging, and long-term sustainability. From early strategy to launch architecture, I guide you in creating a space that feels clear, welcoming, and structured for growth.

Services include:

• Community vision + membership model design

• Platform selection (Mighty Networks, Circle, Kajabi, custom builds, etc.)

• Content structure + onboarding flows

• Engagement frameworks + event integration

• Monetization strategy

• Launch + growth roadmap

Whether you’re building a private membership, artist collective, or mission-driven ecosystem, I help you design a space that is intentional, scalable, and rooted in connection.
