YCNU #0057: Inside the School of Film & Media Arts with Helen Stephenson
In this episode of YC and You, host Michael Grady sits down with Helen Stephenson, Director of Yavapai College’s School of Film and Media Arts and founder of the Prescott Film Festival. Helen explores how video has become an essential language across industries and shares how YC trains students to become skilled storytellers—on screen, behind the camera, and in the editing room. They discuss hands-on learning, new certificates in extended reality and documentary filmmaking, real-world production opportunities, and the vital soft skills students gain on set. Helen also offers a preview of upcoming changes, partnerships, and the 2025 Prescott Film Festival. A must-listen for future filmmakers and media creatives.
