The Doers and Dreamers...Warner Bros. Discovery’s Access Canada and Think Tank Training Centre (Think Tank) have once again partnered to sponsor five selected artists from underrepresented communities in Canada with full-time tuition to Think Tank’s world-class 3D Art program. Starting June 3, 2024, the program, CG Asset Creation for Film or Games, is designed to teach students how to layer essential technical skills with original artistic ideas, master real-world software, and develop an industry-ready portfolio. Highly personalized, hands-on, and entirely online, this program helps young artists gain the crucial skills and connections needed to launch a rewarding career in the entertainment industry.
Entering its third year, the Doers and Dreamers Digital Arts Scholarship is designed to create opportunities within the entertainment industry for artists from historically overlooked communities. People of all genders, abilities, and identities from underrepresented communities in Canada, including members of Indigenous, Black and racialized groups, people with disabilities, and LGBTQ2+ communities are encouraged to apply for this initiative.

Building off the success of past scholarships
“With one cohort already completed their studies, and another in their final term, the recipients from the first two iterations of this scholarship are well on their way to elevating their art and making an impact on the creative industry. They’ve all shown incredible dedication and perseverance, as well as an adaptability to the rigors that comes with a full-time education.” says Think Tank Co-founder, Scott Thompson, adding “By re-partnering with Warner Bros. Discovery Access Canada, we are able to once again extend this opportunity to those who have been historically underrepresented throughout Canada. It’s our goal that through such initiatives we can help foster a more inclusive, equitable, and diverse industry that empowers artists of all backgrounds and identities. We look forward to what will surely be another excellent round of Doers and Dreamers applications for 2024.”
Artists from Canada’s underrepresented communities have a chance to receive full tuition to our 64-week online program -- All thanks to the amazing folks at Warner Bros. Discovery. Submit your application today (it is easy!) or pass it along to an artist you think deserves this opportunity!
