The Catalyst Story Institute is a champion of independent artists and a curator of narrative stories.
Our mission is to advance the narrative storytelling arts by giving creators a pathway to develop professional working careers in the industry (TV, film, podcast, any visual or audio narrative format). In today's digital information age, we strongly believe that storytelling is the cultural fabric that ties us together and can provide hope and opportunity for many who might otherwise feel left out or left behind.
We provide a strong professional community for storytellers to engage with through the Catalyst Institute and offer a unique opportunity to meet fellow professionals and make these lasting connections that can lead to prosperous careers.
Catalyst prides itself on being for and about the creators of quality content - regardless of industry status. Our content creators range from new filmmakers to Emmy winners.
