A HOME FOR EVERY STORYTELLER
At Cardinal Pictures, we are deeply committed to fostering an inclusive and welcoming environment where every student - regardless of race, gender, sexual orientation, nationality, or background - can explore and express their creative voice in filmmaking. Whether you are a screenwriter with a burning idea, a director with a unique vision, an editor, a composer, or anyone passionate about film, we want to collaborate with you. Our goal is to meet you where you are, whether you’re seasoned in filmmaking or just starting out, and provide you with the tools and support to bring your story to life. No matter your interest, talk tous, and we’ll connect you with a project that speaks to your needs, vision and artistic identity.
We understand that not everyone has had access to expensive film equipment, film classes, or softwares like Premiere Pro or DaVinci Resolve, but we believe that creativity is not limited by resources. Here at Wesleyan, we provide these tools to help you share your story, even if you’re still learning the technical skills. Our mission is to uplift historically marginalized voices and break down the barriers that have long prevented equitable access to film. As we’ve seen from the Academy’s growing recognition of diverse narratives - like Lee Isaac Chung’s Minari or Michelle Yeoh’s groundbreaking win for Everything Everywhere All At Once - the power of storytelling lies in global perspectives. We are here to help you tell your story, whether it draws from your cultural heritage, your personal experience, or a folktale from your home nation. So, if you have a story to tell or are looking for a space to nurture your creative potential, come talk to us at Cardinal Pictures. We need your voice, your vision, and your stories to shape the future of filmmaking at Wesleyan.
So, come make a movie with us.
