TechKno Academy, run by the Mobile Educational Multimedia Foundation, Inc. is a nonprofit that teaches underserved teens storytelling through making short films, documentaries, and music videos; from idea development through production and postproduction.

Since 2012 we’ve trained more than 500 young people and connected them with industry professionals for hands-on music and video projects, internships, and career workshops.

Started as MEMa Studio in 2012, we expanded into TechKno Camp (a six-week summer program) and TechKno Academy (a ten-week semester program) in 2018.

Students receive practical, career-focused training in music and film production, studio techniques, teamwork, and real-world learning that extends beyond the classroom.

We now offer TechKno Academy: Music & Film and TechKno Academy: Film Sound Design, with additional programs coming soon; Broadcast Engineering, Film Scoring, Live Sound, Stage Management, and Theatrical Lighting and Rigging.

Join us in helping train the next generation of creative professionals for meaningful careers in music, film, and the broader arts industry.
