Time to roll out the Red Carpet! The 2026 Summer Break Film Acting and Production camp has wrapped filming! Thank you The Reel Collective of Jackson for helping these rising young filmmakers hone their skills!

06/10/2026

🎬 Last summer, a group of students spent a week learning filmmaking, acting, storytelling, and production—and by the end of the week, they had created their own short film.

This July, we’re excited to bring back our Summer Break Film Acting & Production Camp for a second year!

Throughout the week, students ages 13–18 will get hands-on experience with acting, screenwriting, directing, camera operation, and filmmaking while working alongside local filmmakers and creatives.

Whether your teen dreams of being in front of the camera, behind the camera, or is simply looking for a creative outlet, this camp is designed to help them learn by doing.

📅 July 13–17
⏰ 9:00 AM–4:30 PM
📍 The Ned, Jackson, TN

Registration is open now through the link in our bio.

And if you know a teen who might love this experience, we’d appreciate you sharing this post with them (or their parents!) 💛

We’re still processing everything this experience has been — exhausting, surreal, emotional, chaotic, beautiful — and somehow we made a movie 😭

Thank you to every single person who gave their time, talent, energy, support, locations, equipment, encouragement, meals, rides, reposts, donations, and love to this project. This film exists because of you.

Now… onto post-production ✨

We’re heading into the final 4 days of our Seed&Spark campaign and would love your help getting us across the finish line.

Not to get emotional on main but we really love what we’re building over here. Our independent filmmaker hearts are bursting 🥹🎬

Good thing we have two travel nurses, an intensivist, and a pharmacist nearby… they save lives for a living! their personal lives? maybe significantly less stable 👀

Here’s a tiny little peek behind the curtain from today’s promo/content shoot for Thirteen Weeks.

Huge shoutout to Hannah Gore for spending the day with us and capturing this world so beautifully, already cannot wait to see and share more of her work 🫶🏽

And if you want an exclusive first look at the film, come hang with us TOMORROW night at Turntable Coffee Counter for our Music & Film event ✨

Live music from composer Ben Trainor, first looks at the film, and a room full of artists bringing this story to life.

A little behind-the-scenes from Thirteen Weeks so far. 🎬

We’re currently on a short production break before heading back to set next week for our final stretch of filming, and we’re so grateful for this cast, crew, and everyone helping bring this story to life here in West Tennessee.

This is our first feature film under The Reel Collective, and it means so much to be building it with our community behind us.

Our Seed&Spark campaign is currently 21% funded with $5,400 raised from 53 supporters, and we have 16 days leftto keep pushing toward our $25,000 production goal.

If you’ve already pledged, shared, followed, encouraged us, or told someone about the film, thank you. Truly.

And if you’ve been meaning to support, this is a really meaningful time. Every pledge and every share helps us finish strong.

We’re still reeling from the premiere of Hidden Leaders. 🎬

A week and a half later and we’re still so grateful for the room full of people who came out to celebrate the release of Our Jackson Home’s Winter Journal and the stories that inspired this film.

It was an honor to partner with Our Jackson Home to create Hidden Leaders, highlighting some of the incredible community leaders featured in this year’s journal. Getting the chance to help tell these stories, and to witness the impact these leaders have on our city every day, was something truly special.

We’re continually amazed by the people who pour into this community, and we’re grateful to everyone who contributed to the journal, participated in the film, and showed up to support the journal & the premiere.

Thank you for trusting us with these stories. ❤️

02/25/2026

Check out the official cover of Vol. 12, Issue 1 of Our Jackson Home! We're so excited about the release of the winter journal "Hidden Leaders" tomorrow and the screening of the documentary to go alongside it created by The Reel Collective of Jackson.

Join us tomorrow at Turntable Coffee Counter to watch these stories come to life and grab a copy of the new journal! Doors open at 5:30pm and the screening will begin at 6:00pm.

Thank you to our full journal sponsor, Carroll Bank & Trust, Tennessee Arts Commission for grant support of the journal, and to Jackson, TN Neighborhood Services and the Jackson Arts Council for their support of the documentary.
