Juxtaposition Arts builds the next generation of North Minneapolis creatives through hands on education that transforms raw talent into career ready artists. The Bureau launched the Creative Pioneers Fellowship to revolutionize how young creatives learn, partnering with JXTA to center strategic thinking, entrepreneurship, and real world production.
The Bureau brought ROQA in to lead production training. Our founder Raji Vela ran workshops as Director and DP, breaking down industry craft into teachable systems. We showed fellows not just what to make, but how to make it with intention.
Workshops ran like a hands-on studio lab. Fellows took turns filming, watching, and adjusting shots while ROQA™ broke down camera decisions into simple, repeatable steps. Behind-the-scenes footage was captured in small, easy-to-understand clips that showed exactly how each moment was created. The final package included a main hero film, shorter cutdowns, vertical edits for social, a set of still images, and a full BTS library built for both teaching and promotion.
