The Nickerson Gardens program is rolling along nicely, but this week we want to bring you up to speed on what's been happening at the Jail Program... Stan Cassio finished up basic, technical Avid editing and he turned it over to our creative editing teacher Brandon "Chandler" who has been teaching our guys creative editing.


Chandler finished his basic instruction last week and now has created (5) inmate/student teams who will compete in creating a HOLLYWOOD IMPACT STUDIOS promo video. We're excited to see what the guys come up with.

There is a lot happening! I'm going to start with our program at Nickerson Gardens in Watts. This last week, our students had their second class held on the Fox Lot. They have really enjoyed it and have finally begun to open up to the possibilities...

These classes went over both production and post production and the careers they have to offer. They got to tour the entire Fox Lot; visiting Wardrobe, Grip & Electric, the Foley Stage and Fox Sports. But one of their highlights was visiting the scoring stage where Fox had an 80 piece orchestra. One of those 80 was our very own Cyndi Hall, who took some time to share her journey.





One of the truly neat developments in this ministry is that some of our alumni from the Pitchess Detention Center Program, who've now been out of jail for over 6 months, are coming alongside our kids at Nickerson Gardens. It's coming full circle! Praise God!

Next week I'll cover all the amazing things that are going on with Semester 3 at Pitchess Detention Center. Thank you all for your continued support.

Hollywood Impact Studios continues to grow. We've started our third semester at the Pitchess Detention Center with (28) student/inmates. We're also excited to announce that we've started a second program, this time, at The Nickerson Gardens Rec Center in Watts, California. We have (13) students ranging in age 13 to 21. Besides teaching in the classroom they will be taking some exciting field trips and will get some hands-on workshops. We're excited to see what God does with this new program.
