Keep one foot in the craft while shaping the next generation of filmmakers.

The Youth Cinema Project hires working filmmakers to teach project-based film classes to students in grades 5-12, guiding them from script to screen on a real short film over the school year. It’s flexible, part-time work that fits around freelance gigs, with paid prep time and a curriculum already built for you. You bring the craft; we bring the lesson plans.

What you’ll do

  • Teach two 90-minute film classes a week, partnered with a co-mentor

  • Guide students through the full filmmaking process, writing, shooting, and editing, to produce a finished short film

  • Teach from our ready-made, rigorous curriculum (no lesson planning from scratch)

  • Help young people find their voice and discover a path into film

Why filmmakers take this role

  • Flexible hours (avg. 7-14/week) that work around production schedules and freelance gigs

  • $31.80/hour, plus paid preparation time and paid training

  • Mileage reimbursed for any travel

  • Stay creatively engaged between projects, and give back to your community

What you’ll need

  • 3+ years working in the film industry, as a director, producer, or in any below-the-line role

  • Strong skills in at least one area of filmmaking

  • Enough editing ability to cut simple short content (DaVinci Resolve a plus)

  • Comfortable and confident working with kids in a school setting

  • Valid driver’s license, auto insurance, and reliable transportation (some travel up to 50 miles; mileage reimbursed). Comfortable using Google Workspace.

Nice to have (not required)

  • Film degree or film-school background

  • Previous teaching or mentoring experience

  • Knowledge of camera, audio, and G&E equipment; film story structure

  • Experience with Frame.io and Dropbox
