The Power of a Film Program

Yul

I've got this community of people I can rely on for help — there's always someone in the room that's strong in areas that I'm not strong in.

Chapter Grant Initiative

Filmmaking
for Every Student.

No school should be excluded from HSCA simply because of financial barriers. We are the only honor society to offer recurring financial assistance to Chapters and schools.

CoversStartup feesAnnual duesEducational resources

Filmmakers aren't just camera operators. We are artists, writers, musicians, project managers, and logisticians. It is exactly this breadth of abilities being developed that makes filmmaking such a powerful educational tool. We at HSCA vehemently believe that every student should be able to pursue filmmaking no matter their situation.
