A simpler way to create meaningful experiences for your community.

Film Trips was built on a simple belief: experiences are more powerful when they’re shared — and remembered. We work with businesses, brands, and community leaders who want to bring people together in ways that feel real and lasting.

Film Trips connects you with local creators who host or document content-driven experiences in your space.
Whether it’s a restaurant gathering, a workshop, a meetup, or a themed event, the experience comes first — and the content is built in.

Your guests stay present. The creator captures what’s unfolding naturally.
You’re left with meaningful content that reflects your culture and community.

Film Trips isn’t a production company or an agency. It’s a practical way to activate your community through experiences that live on beyond the moment.

Our Mission

To celebrate everyday life through creativity, connection, and shared stories.

We believe creativity belongs to everyone.
Film Trips exists to help people slow down, connect, and capture life as it happens — turning presence into art and real moments into timeless keepsakes.

Our Vision

To build a worldwide network of creator-led experiences that preserve human stories, strengthen local economies, and connect people through creativity.

Every experience shared through Film Trips becomes part of a living archive of modern life — documenting the faces, feelings, and stories that make our communities unique.

Meet the Founder, Imani Lenz

Film Trips was built from a simple observation.

There are thousands of creators capable of hosting meaningful, intimate experiences — and thousands of people with communities looking for new ways to activate and engage their audience. But they struggle to find each other.

After five years as a full-time freelancer documenting real people, real places, and real moments, I saw the same pattern repeatedly: many experiences either went undocumented, became overproduced, or were buried under traditional marketing complexity.

At the same time, I watched firsthand how difficult it was for a talented creator — like my wife, an artist & photographer hosting intimate painting experiences — to get in front of the right communities. Not because her work wasn’t strong. But because the system to connect creators and community leaders simply didn’t exist. That gap became clear.

Film Trips is designed to sit at the intersection of community activation and authentic content creation. It creates a structured, friction-free way for people with communities to bring curated experiences to their audience — and for local creators to host and document those experiences naturally.

No production teams. No agency retainers. No algorithm gimmicks. No guesswork.

Just real experiences, intentionally activated and thoughtfully captured.

Film Trips isn’t a creative agency. It’s a new category: a content experiences marketplace built around human connection.

Who It’s For

  1. For Creators: A new revenue stream built around hosting and documenting real-world experiences — not just chasing clients.

  2. For Community Builders: An easier way to activate your audience through curated, creator-led experiences — with built-in content that supports your marketing and community growth.
