Acting For Film.

Working together to create meaningful stories.

When Zaahi Studios. sets out to create something, we aim to do more than tell the story. We build teams that champion new voices, experiences and viewpoints because we believe that’s what makes the best stories.

We strive to provide opportunities to those who haven’t had traditional pathways into the entertainment industry so that the stories we tell are reflective of our audiences and remain long-lasting.

The Zaahi Studios. Acting For Film Membership features multiple components, all geared towards preparing you for a successful career in television and film including: the creation of original content, volunteering, and teaching.

NEW VOICES

As storytellers, we champion and celebrate new voices. We understand our responsibility to create pipelines for talented individuals who haven’t traditionally had access to opportunities at the studio level. As part of our commitment to diversity and inclusion, we partnered with Riley Children's Network to be a leading distributor of the content created by our members.

 

Once you join, you'll be a part of a group of talented individuals that  shares a common goal to create everlasting content.

 

We have partnerships with organizations, businesses, and caregiver institutions  to share and distribute our content directly to their network of viewers, we believe partnerships like Riley Children Hospital and the CCTV channel  are key stepping stones into a local market.

 

The Network  Channel CCTV  is home to our first running show Production Junction with jammed packed laughter and excitement that brings smiles to kids faces everyday.

Creative Talent provides Production Assistants (PAs) , Director of Photography (DPs), Writers, Gaffers, Grips, and Actors/Actresses  access to many of our volunteer opportunities.

 

The Zaahi Studios Company works with local schools, churches, youth groups, and colleges in bringing them learning opportunities that will impact their careers. As a volunteer you will be working as part of the production crew , cast member or one of our leading instructors to help students complete lessons and skills training that helps them thrive and feel at home on set.

 

There are many volunteer opportunities, just waiting for the right volunteer to step up. Start where you can and turn your passion for storytelling into action. We encourage you to bring your unique vision and resources to the table by helping our studio create amazing experiences for kids that love movie making magic.
