Digital Storytelling Initiative: Production Institute

The Digital Storytelling Initiative (DSI), a joint project of the Jonathan Logan Media Center and Logan Center Community Arts, partners with organizations on campus, in the South Side, and throughout Chicago, extending the Media Center’s reach and impact to fill community needs in access and training in digital production. Through workshops, summer camps, workforce development programs, feature presentations and more, DSI sponsors media arts training, showcases digital media work by emerging and established practitioners, and equips communities with the tools, resources, and experience to tell their stories across borders and barriers.
The Production Institute, a program of the DSI and presented in partnership with the Community Film Workshop of Chicago, makes high-quality digital production training accessible to emerging media makers from South Side communities. The aim of the Production Institute is to provide skills enhancement and engage artists in telling stories of the rich culture of their communities and institutions.
