EnVision Me Student Showcase

Join us in celebration of Charlotte's emerging filmmakers! Experience an evening filled with extraordinary storytelling through the lens of two Charlotte Mecklenburg Schools District high schools, Central Piedmont Early College and iMeck Academy whose original documentaries range from personal stories, to triumphs, to future dreams.

Enjoy the night with the premiere of documentaries created by participants from the Gantt's EnVision Me program. EnVision Me seeks to cultivate student creativity by designing culturally rich, project-oriented experiences, current issues or personal stories.

Students present their personal stories through short films created during the EnVision Me semester long program. Friends, family and community are invited to support these students and the heart of storytelling, with a wonderful reception to follow.

Applaud the youth of Charlotte by viewing the EnVision Me premiere film screening of rising creatives from local Charlotte Mecklenburg Schools!

EnVision Me is a 12-week project that uses the arts to empower and educate youth. The Gantt partners with area high schools to offer filmmaking instruction to a cohort of interested and invested students. The cohort learns every step of film production via a blend of virtual and on-site sessions.

Students have access to state-of-the-art equipment and educators to learn the basics of filmmaking, from scriptwriting and cinematography, to editing and film treatment. The course includes weekly hands-on sessions and homework assignments. The final product is a short film that the cohort premieres to family, friends, and the Charlotte community at the Gantt Center.
