We are so saddened to hear that TT Stern-Enzi has passed away. TT was always such a great supporter of our aspiring young filmmakers, including and celebrating them whenever possible. A generous spirit dispensed with such grace. He will be missed by us all. Our heart goes out to Jessica, Lily, Mic and the entire Stern-Enzi family

Submissions are now open for 'Without Boundaries Film Festival', centering on women working behind the screens in tech, media, broadcast, AV, or related fields. For the last 10 years Fourthwall has worked hard to address the gender and diversity imbalance in the creative field, offering youth and young adults an equitable platform for expression through the arts. We know first hand how difficult it can be to break through, the barriers that exist, how the cards seem to be stacked. 'Without Boundaries' is a great opportunity to tell your story, your real story.

LIAM: In 10 years we have never hired an intern! And when we see artists like Liam teaching an aspiring young filmmaking team, applying exquisite storytelling and complex filmmaking craft to their creative collaboration, it becomes clear why Teaching Artist is more appropriate. Liam will graduate at the end of the year from UC-CCM Media Production. He has taken advantage of every opportunity presented to him. He is well prepared. He is ready.

OWEN was 12 years old when this photo (inset) was taken while Fourthwall was working out of the Art Academy of Cincinnati. He is clearly in awe of his future self. And so he should be. Owen would return for future film camps, then our high school apprenticeship program and now as a Teaching Artist. Along the way he landed a gig at LOCAL 12, WKRC-TV and recently graduated from UC-CCM Media Production program. What an inspiration Owen is to up-and-coming artists and a testament to enjoying the spoils of his hard work and dedication. Congrats Owen!

LYNAE first started with Fourthwall at 13 attending one of our summer camps. Later she returned as a paid apprentice and now as a Teaching Artist. Along the way she enrolled in Cincinnati State Technical and Community College video program while completing her Junior and Senior years of high school, using that experience and those credits to transfer to The Media Production Division at UC-CCM. Perhaps a road less travelled but there was never any doubt. Congrats Lynae on your resilience, focus and finding your passion.
