Smart TV Stars is a philanthropic organization that provides opportunities for students to gain experience in film and television production. Students work behind and in front of the camera to produce, direct, write and act in their own shows. They experience various career roles on a production set and learn about new opportunities from internet streaming. Recent graduates and professionals volunteer their skills to help the students and serve as crew for the productions. The goal is to open up the film industry to those who may not otherwise have a chance and teach valuable career skills.

The foundation and the mission of Smart TV Stars is to develop a philanthropic career life, providing
opportunity for those who may never get the chance to experience the production industry, as it will reach
new levels with the explosion of the internet.
The economic tragedy brought opportunity for young career professionals, recent graduates, and
experienced professionals; sharing their skills with young students who produce, direct, write and act in
their own show. After the students complete their show, they will have experienced working behind the
camera or within the studio managing multiply positions and many will take on the acting positions in
front of the camera.
The students will experience all the career opportunities that a production set can offer, as well as the
new productions designed for internet viewing; this opening a whole new world of educational options
and career choices for the students.
The crew of producers, directors, writers and actors are the foundation.
Sincerely
