A BIT ABOUT US

At MEME, we believe that every creative deserves the opportunity to succeed. That's why we provide the knowledge and tools necessary to turn passion and drive into a successful career. We hold programs and social meetups through our social arm NOCOVA to learn and foster an environment of creativity and collaboration.

​

MEME was founded on the Ides of March in 2020, just as COVID-19 was becoming a major societal problem. We have worked hard to grow and serve despite that unfortunate timing. Join us as we work to build a thriving community of creatives in our beautiful state!​

A Bit About Our Programs

We serve our mission through our programs!
 

Our flagship program, the CONTENT CREATOR'S CRASH COURSE (C4), will offer a comprehensive overview of the film, television, and new media industries. Through C4, creatives are guided through the life cycle of a single project, with a special focus on key business elements such as finance, legal, working with guilds, and inclusivity. C4 also emphasizes networking opportunities and provides an open forum to meet with support groups, service providers, and consultants. We are actively fundraising to bring this program to Boulder!

​

We also offer other exciting programs such as PITCH QUORUM for building a project pitch and package, and MARKET FRESH a primer and guide for attending markets like the AMERICAN FILM MARKET. Our PA WORKSHOP and SOUND WORKSHOPS are opportunities for Workforce Development for on-set skills and THE CARPENTER NOT THE TOOLS is a great program for beginners looking to get started with what they have. 

Upcoming programs in the works include a PRODUCER'S PANEL and a DEVELOPMENT TRACK as well as THE TEACHING SET program, which will provide hands-on training in an interactive environment.  Also in discussion are a film festival and competition, WRITER'S RETREATS, and a small media market to apply what you learn from our other programs. Keep an eye on this site and on our socials!

​

At MEME, we're committed to helping creatives achieve their full potential, and we invite you to join us on this journey.
