Boston storytellers, filmmakers, creatives, this one’s for you 🎬✨
Fourddo is inviting young creatives (16–25) to create powerful PSA short films that spotlight civic and social issues that deserve more visibility.
Selected fellows will enter with a film idea and work alongside Boston community leaders, mentors, and industry creatives to bring that story to life. From development to production to premiere, you’ll go through the full filmmaking process, and get paid to do it.
This is your chance to tell the story your community needs to hear.
🎥 Create meaningful work
🤝 Build with mentors + city leaders
📍 Connect with Boston creatives
🎬 Premiere your film
💸 Paid fellowship
Not selected? You can still get involved through crew opportunities, workshops, and networking.
Applications are open now.
Deadline: May 24 @ 11:59 PM ET

What city should we bring the Four Stories Fellowship to next?✈️
We wanna be BIGGER than the program! 🗣️
Dever Humphrey @denver_humphrey , youth co-leader of @fourddo , gave us the recap you needed for the Aspen Challenge: Boston!
These students didn't come with theories. They came with sharp, thoughtful ideas ready for civic engagement, and the Aspen Challenge gave them the platform. Their ideas reminded every single person in that room what's possible when you stop waiting for permission. The kind of ideas that make you look at your own and think "what am I waiting for?"

“The Problem isn’t Young People.”
Young people already have the ideas, creativity, and leadership.
What’s often missing? Spaces that trust them.
Grateful to be featured by the @AspenRisingGen and in conversation with Winter and Yasmine 💙
At @Fourddo , we’re building storytelling spaces where young people can reflect, create, and actually be seen.
Watch the full conversation, link in bio.
Stay for the announcement.

From building content to building community 🎥
Dylan and Denver are both CU alumni and founders of Fourddo: a youth-led creative media organization that equips young storytellers with real opportunities, campaigns, and platforms for impact.
Through fellowships, partnerships, showcases, and original media projects, they’re turning youth creativity into sociocultural change.
Their amazing work continues to prove what’s possible when young people are given the trust, space, and resources to lead. ✨
Behind the scenes of a special project 💛
A day filled with creativity, play, and young people leading the way. Grateful for everyone who showed up with openness and heart.
More soon.

Reclaiming Storytelling in an Age of Infinite Content. 🎥
As part of the @SundanceOrg 2026 Film Festival, I’m honored to join @SundanceCollab ’s inaugural Story Forum—a space to slow down, question, and protect the heart of our stories as the world (and technology) keeps speeding up.
I’ll be joining a panel on reclaiming storytelling, in conversation with Jim Festante, and Shira Lazar, moderated by Justin Trevor Winters.✨
Jan 29–30 • 💻 Online via Sundance Collab • Free + global
Because intention still matters. 🎬

Happy New Year! 📣
What started as moments and conversations turned into something we felt called to share. Here’s to creating spaces where dreams are spoken out loud, protected, and shared. Grateful for everyone who trusted us with theirs. Dreamers, a short documentary — coming soon. 🎬
This past week, the Fourddo team joined in on @nosonovember ‘s Digital Detox 📵 a challenge to disconnect and reset.
Here’s what our team had to say:
🗣️ @dylankeith__ : “This challenge was indeed a challenge. The things I left were things I didn’t need.”
🗣️ @denver_humphrey : “This was a needed reset. I felt tuned into life. November is just the challenge, it’s on you to continue it.”
A big shout-out to @maddiecfreeman and the @nosonovember team for leading such a powerful initiative 🌱
Taking a digital step back can be tough, but it’s worth it to see what really deserves your attention ✨

Fourddo is stepping offline for the holiday szn and honestly, we can’t wait. From Nov 24 to Dec 1, we’ll be doing everything except scrolling: losing card games to younger cousins, burning cookies, taking winter walks with besties, and laughing at inside jokes that make zero sense. 🥧✨
We’re joining @nosonovember for a digital detox to give our minds a reset and give our relationships some extra love. If that sounds like your vibe too, join the detox with us. Do a day, do a week, whatever feels good. 🍂
Let real life be the main character for a bit.

“I see you.” Check-ins don’t end when the event does—DMs, late-night calls, and local intros keep the bridge alive so support is always within reach. #MentalHealth #Community #support #friendship #wellness
No one should feel like the only person in the boat. We’re creating spaces for presence, peace, and real connection—where students can breathe, dance, and remember they’re not alone. #mentalhealth #Community #Mindfulness #Wellness #selfcare
The time has come.⚡
In honor of World Kindness Day we’re wrapping up Do-Ology: Days of Mindfulness — our national tour created with @macysinc , @civicsunplugged , @unesco , @saythename_17 , and @rileyswayfoundation
At the beginning of 2025, we set out to explore mindfulness in motion. From Nashville to Los Angeles, we built spaces for young people to pause, reconnect, and lead with purpose.🎞️
Each city brought its own story of energy, creativity, and care. Together, it reminded us that slowing down can be a powerful way to show yourself some kindness.🌸
Thank you to every partner, creator, young person, and community who made this journey possible. We’re just getting started.📍
Special shoutout to the incredible supporters, facilitators, and participants who lifted us along the way:
