Free Spirit Media partners with schools and organizations to provide education, access, and opportunity in media production to under-served urban youth.

 

Through hands-on production of their own media content, participants build life skills in communication, critical and independent thinking, teamwork, and the use of technology. Believing that youth perspectives are a critical element of American culture, Free Spirit Media actively distributes student work to a range of audiences.

Participants’ dreams and aspirations grow, and in turn, their voices and visions benefit our society.

Using the poem "Where I'm From" by Willie Perdomo as a creative prompt, students created poems to share and express where they come from and how they view the world: their neighborhoods, homes and experiences. After recording the poetry in small groups, students used Final Cut Pro to edit their work, adding music and sound effects to complete their message. Pieces were written, performed, recorded, and edited by students through Free Spirit Media at North Lawndale College Prep on the West Side of Chicago, IL.
