WHO WE ARE
BAYCAT is an innovative nonprofit media production company composed of a professional Studio and a youth Academy. Our work addresses racial, gender and economic inequities in the media industry by building equitable pathways to employment for diverse storytellers. Through the education and employment of Black, Indigenous, people of color, women, transgender and non-binary mediamakers in the Bay Area — and through our production work for socially-minded clients — we are changing the stories that get shared with the world.
WHAT WE CARE ABOUT
Creating positive social change through storytelling, design & media.
Uplifting diverse voices that have been historically oppressed by or excluded from mainstream media and society.
Building long-term positive systemic impact and pathways to employment through skills building, coaching, and real-world experience.
Doing well and doing good. As a social enterprise, we’re a sustainable nonprofit business model.
Excellence. The highest quality of services in education and media production.
Building community, diversity, inclusion & equity from within and with all our partners.
CONTEXT & EVOLUTION
Established in Bayview Hunters Point in 2004, Bayview Hunters Point Center for Arts and Technology (dba BAYCAT), is an award-winning established media arts, youth and workforce development organization in the San Francisco Bay Area. Founder Villy Wang has established BAYCAT as an organization that strives to build a world where media celebrates diverse voices and experiences by training the next generation of storytellers from historically oppressed communities. Our work inspires lifelong learning in the arts by empowering young people to discover their creative voices and recognize the value of their own stories. Our ultimate goal is to diversify the media industry so that BIPOC and gender diverse creatives can reclaim their narratives and tell their stories in profound new ways.
Our unique, social enterprise model is at the heart of our Digital Media Arts Pathway Program, a transformational education to employment pathway that guides 200+ young creatives through the creative media making process each year and employs them to produce media for clients and community partners. In collaboration with 250+ partners over 17 years, BAYCAT has: bridged the digital divide for 4,700+ youth; trained, employed, and launched the careers of 290+ paid interns; and placed 83% of intern graduates into creative careers with Pixar, HBO, MasterClass and other leading employers. Our Studio and youth media reaches 3,000,000 people annually.
From its beginnings, BAYCAT’s unique social enterprise model has created a sustainable and diversified revenue stream of both contributed (BAYCAT Academy) and earned income (BAYCAT Studio) that supports its programming and media services. This hybrid model has supported the development of deep relationships and long-lasting benefits, not only of the BAYCAT participants, but also of important stakeholders of the ecosystem that drives the creative and media industries. BAYCAT’s hybrid model supports multiple stakeholders including donors, clients, nonprofits, small business and community based organizations.
BAYCAT ACADEMY offers paid introductory and advanced media arts training to youth (ages 11-17) through project-based, youth-centered curriculum in filmmaking and graphic arts. Cohorts collaborate to make short films that explore social justice issues, while our earn-and-learn model pays advanced high school mediamakers, “The Crew” (ages 15-18), to create pro bono media for community partners.
BAYCAT STUDIO produces original content and socially-conscious media for high profile clients like the Golden State Warriors and The San Francisco Foundation and serves as the training ground for our internship, fellowship and apprenticeship programs (ages 18+). Interns receive one-on-one mentorship, work with professional clients, graduate with a completed demo reel and resume and are placed into jobs with BAYCAT’s network of employer partners. Fellows receive creative support and mentorship from industry professionals, while working on creative pitches and project ideation. Apprentices join the BAYCAT Studio team to deepen their editing and production skills. We average 400 hours of donated media services each year and increasingly uplift Black-owned businesses and nonprofits to help them weather the COVID-19 pandemic. Watch our Studio Reel.
FUTURE DIRECTION:
BAYCAT is an established organization that continues to evolve as we center impact for our young creatives based on their changing needs in a very dynamic industry. We have been adaptive during these complex times and have transformed programming toward a hybrid in-person and virtual model, while implementing COVID-19 safety protocols in all aspects of our Academy and Studio in-person offerings and productions.
We are entering a phase of strategic growth and deeper impact at a systems level to bring greater equity, diversity and inclusion for young creatives. Co-creating evolving racial and social justice narratives starts with BAYCAT investing in shared learning, language and vision for systemic change both inside BAYCAT and in the world. The team has been actively engaged in Becoming an Antiracist Organization, which was kick started by a 4-month capacity building process through Be the Change. We aspire for our explicit practice of race equity to stand as a model for other employers and partners with whom we work. We believe and have centered the wellness of our team and young people in our evolution, and hope the Executive Co-Director would lead this continued work.
