Sprout Make-A-Movie Program

Since 1994, Sprout's Make-A-Movie program has turned cameras on adults with developmental disabilities for a series of fun, poignant and richly drawn videos. This innovative program offers people with developmental disabilities the opportunity to star in and be part of the creative video-making process.

Typically marginalized by their absence in film and video, participants are excited by this newfound opportunity to explore their artistic side. They have inspired and at times co-written stories that became Sprout films. They work hard to learn their roles and are given the support to reach their potential as actors. Creative benefits of role-playing are myriad, while the boost in self-esteem is invaluable.

Sprout offers a variety of video-making opportunities that include the production of animations and documentaries in addition to narrative filmmaking.
