PARTNERS

For three years, under the name Young Producers Project, FSN led some of our first music production classes at BCAM in Bedstuy, Brooklyn. Our experiences in these workshops allowed us to develop the foundation of our collaborative approach to music making, and helped get our fledgling organization off the ground. The videos "Yin & Yang" and "Right About Now" in collaboration with filmmaker Jonathan Vitagliano, feature young musicians in this program, including a 15-year-old Ernest Lewis, who later went on to work with FSN as a teaching artist. 


Our collaboration with BCAM continued in 2016, as we partnered with National Sawdust and the band People's Champs to run a music composition, production, and performance workshop featuring talented BCAM students. This video produced by Hover and featured on BRIC TV tells the story of this remarkable collaboration. 


Over the years we have also had the pleasure of collaborating with BCAM teachers Adam Mendola (film), Mamadou Diallo (math), Christy Herbes (art), Kevin Greer (English), and many others over the years. We owe our successes at BCAM to our amazing students and the support from Principal James O’Brian, Assistant Principal Samantha Charles-Pierre, and BCAM's Music Director Brian Satz.

From 2008 to 2011, FSN ran workshops at Brooklyn Community Arts and Media High School (BCAM), helping to lay the foundation for our collaborative approach to music-making.
