Hi there,

Thank you for your interest in Next Gen at BAVC Media - we’re really glad you found us 😊

Our spring semester will run on Tuesdays & Thursdays from 4:30–6:30pm, in San Francisco.

Dates are still being finalized.

By completing this form, you’ll be added to our list to receive the full application once it goes live.

About Next Gen:
Next Gen is a free after-school program for San Francisco youth (ages 14–17) where students learn video production or animation, create original projects, build a portfolio, and work alongside teaching artists and peers in a supportive, creative environment. Students who complete the program receive a $300 stipend.

Tracks

Factory (Video Production)
Learn how to make your own films, from idea to final edit. You’ll use cameras, learn storytelling, and create short video projects about topics that matter to you.

Animation
Explore how animation works, from hand-drawn frames to digital tools and stop-motion. No prior experience needed, just curiosity and creativity.

Student Board
A smaller leadership-focused group of returning students who help shape the program, support events, and build skills in collaboration, planning, and creative direction.

Thanks for completing this form!  We'll reach out via email to share our Spring 2027 Next Gen application once it's live.  Hope to welcome you to the BAVC Media family in the Spring!
