Our Mission

Creating Creators supports and aligns lessons in the classroom, with the entrepreneurial, creative, and collaborative rigor of film production and 21st century skills of working professionals.

Our Story

In 2007, Creating Creators founders, Jessica Just and Polo Munoz, were invited into classrooms in South and Central Los Angeles to teach film to elementary and high school students. Since then, their curriculum and instructional method has been used to implement film programs in over 20 school districts and their students have gone on to pursue higher education and opportunities created by their professional partners.

Our Philosophy

Creating Creators serves to help guide and develop the students, teachers, and creative professionals to discover skills and talents of their own that help them define who they are to the world. It is our firm belief that working with the next generation of global citizens is a delicate collaborative process.

How It Works

Professionals from the film industry, use their experience in the workplace to guide students and their certified teacher through the creative and technical process of making a film. During this 34 week process, professionals share lessons that have been aligned with the common core standards and are meant to support the curriculum of the certified teacher.
