Mission: To empower individuals with critical media literacy skills, fostering informed and responsible engagement with media content, thereby cultivating a more informed, discerning, and socially conscious global community.
The Open Film School Foundation (TOFS) is a non-profit organization dedicated to advancing film and
media education. Our mission is to empower students in low-income groups with the knowledge and
skills needed to navigate and contribute to the rapidly evolving landscape of media.
Through innovative programs and resources, we aim to help students make sense of the pervasive
influence of media in their lives and equip them with the tools to critically analyze, create, and
engage with various forms of visual storytelling. Whether it's understanding the power of cinema,
mastering digital media production, or exploring the intricacies of storytelling techniques, we strive
to cultivate a community of informed and inspired media enthusiasts.
At the heart of our foundation is a commitment to accessibility and inclusivity. We believe that
everyone should have the opportunity to explore their passion for film and media regardless of
background or socioeconomic status. Through our outreach initiatives, we seek to break down
barriers and foster a diverse community of aspiring filmmakers and storytellers.
Join us in shaping the next generation of media-savvy individuals who will not only consume but also
contribute to the vibrant tapestry of global storytelling. Together, let's unlock the power of film and
media education to inspire, educate, and empower students to chart their own paths in the
ever-changing world of media.
