Tiny But Mighty - Pequeño Studios

1. What is the Pequeño Studios?
Pequeño Studios (PS) is a media studio and mentorship space in Los Angeles designed specifically for young Latino content creators, including podcasters, musicians, and video artists. We provide professional-grade equipment, studio rentals, and education to empower Latino voices in media.

2. Why does the Latino community need this?
Although Latinos make up nearly half of Los Angeles' population, they are underrepresented in media production and ownership. PS bridges that gap by offering affordable access to resources and support to help Latino creatives build sustainable media careers.

3. How will the funds be used?
Your contributions will go toward our first-year lease, studio buildout (soundproofing, set design), purchasing production equipment, hiring part-time staff, and marketing. We’re raising $250,000 total, with $20,000 coming specifically from this crowdfunding campaign.

4. What services will the studio offer?
We offer podcast set rentals, music recording, video filming/editing, one-on-one mentorship, educational seminars, and community events. Prices are kept accessible—for example, podcast set rentals start at $75/hour or $500/month.

5. Who is behind this project?
PS was founded by Angee Smallz, an experienced podcaster and YouTube creator who’s already built a loyal audience and knows how to turn content into a thriving business. Her mission is to share that knowledge with the next generation.

6. Will this be open to the public?
Yes! Creators can rent space, attend events, book mentorship sessions, or simply join the community. We welcome all allies, but our focus is on uplifting young Latino creators.

7. What do backers receive?
Backers may receive perks like discounted studio time, early access to events, acknowledgment on our Founders Wall, or branded merchandise—depending on their level of support.

8. How soon will the studio launch?
We plan to secure our lease and complete the buildout within the first two months after funding. A soft launch follows in month 3, with a full public launch and events starting in month 4.

9. How can I stay updated or get involved beyond donating?
Follow us on social media, subscribe to our email list, or attend one of our launch events. We’re also seeking volunteers, mentors, and community partners—get in touch!
