Set up in 2002, Studio12 is a digital media initiative that invests in the creative talents of disadvantaged young people, aged 16-30, and living in Leeds. Studio12 strives to provide young people who cannot afford university with a creative process to educate, engage and include young people in producing new work. Accessible to all, it provides free access to a production studio, training, accredited qualifications and an industry panel of creative professionals.
Located in Leeds Central Library and with funding from the European Union Pavilion, the studio educates young people in the production of recording, photography, video, multimedia, music and software training, allowing them to create a new learning experience using new technology and non-digital resources. Funding is also received from partnerships and from work that the young creatives produce and get commissioned for.
In addition to the recording studio, the studio also have a green screen and whitespace for photoshoots and video production. The whole concept of the studio is to enable young people to become producers of new media content and empower young people to further develop their skills.
