Big Picture Alliance’s pathway of school, summer, and workforce programs provide hundreds of Philly youth access to media tools, creative community and professional mentorship – empowering them to define their own narrative from script-to-screen and from curiosity-to-careers.
BPA’s 4th Annual Big Picture Film Fest, held June 20th, 2025 at PAFA, premiered 10 new films exploring the theme of “Metamorphosis” produced by young filmmakers through Big Picture Alliance programs across Philadelphia. BPA debuted new dramas, comedies, experimental films, and documentaries featuring the stories of community change makers. This includes work produced by Big Picture Productions, BPA’s Emmy Award winning production company that hires young emerging talent to uplift the stories of local community organizations and nonprofits that are transforming lives and neighborhoods across Philadelphia.
