Jimmy Jenkins Masterclass (In-Person): The Art of Making Independent Films

This Creatives of Faith Masterclass is featuring award-winning filmmaker, director, and writer Jimmy Jenkins. The DMV Native got his start working for BET and Tyler Perry studios, learning the foundation of what it takes to bring resonant, successful projects to life. Then, he started making films of his own like Something in the Water, Nothing But a Winner, and more.

Now, he is readying a new film release that is headed to theaters all across the country called, "God With Us" (In theaters Nov. 13th).

Join our class as Jimmy takes us through what it takes to create the project you can't stop thinking about-- from budgets, to writing tips, and more. Learn more about his journey, the biggest lessons, and bring your questions if you’ve ever wondered what it takes to bring your vision from idea to screen.

What makes a COF Masterclass different?

• Creatives of Faith offers the rare mix of faith, process, and insight in a format that goes deep inside the minds of some of the most important creatives. KevOnStage shared how much he personally invested in his shows before landing his Tubi deal. Imani Ellis shared an inside look at the decks she created for the biggest conference for creatives in the world. Skylar Marshai broke down her creative processes in detailed steps that helped us level up our content. The Masterclasses aren’t just inspirational. You get real time insight at how those who inspire us are sustaining their businesses on the foundation of their faith.
• We talk about how God leads us in our creative process and how faith applies to our lives.
• Our founder, award winning journalist Gia Peppers, interviews the teachers and then they share the skill or mindset, and then we get to open the floor for Q&A. Don’t miss it!
