Dreamweaver Collective had a full day of events this past Saturday!

Born out of Boise’s restless, collaborative music underground, The Joy of Music isn’t a series so much as a conversation—one that started the way all the good ones do: by accident. When filmmaker Rick Walters watched classically trained violinist Alyssa Joy Claffey walk into an open mic and improvise fearlessly over his most tangled song, something clicked.

Play Studio was packed as Dreamweaver Collective kicked off pre-production for its biggest film yet.

Dreamweaver Collective’s Production Design Labs resume for 2026! We’re building a ton of cool stuff for our upcoming short film production in March.

Every three months, explore all the studios and meet the people behind them: instructors, Studio Community Project members, and studio managers who can help you bring your ideas to life!

I recently led a video shoot at JUMP, teaming up with Clemy’s Crew to support their upcoming benefit concert and mission. We set out to create a genuine, heartfelt interview with founder Scott Thompson, something that would resonate with potential donors.

Halloween’s not quite over for JUMP’s Dreamweaver Collective - we spent all of yesterday decorating the set for our upcoming short film set at a Halloween party!

In this behind-the-scenes video, I take you inside the studio at JUMP Boise to show how I made my new song melodic sun. Filmed in Boise, Idaho, this video gives a look into my creative process, recording sessions, and what it’s like making original music.

Nick Badasci, a Studio Community Project participant, applied with a simple but powerful idea: to create a family-friendly open mic stand-up comedy night where anyone — kids, teens, and adults — could try out jokes, sharpen their storytelling, or simply enjoy a good laugh. 

Meris, a MOVE Studio Community Project participant, shares a series of uplifting videos designed to help high-performing, conscious individuals overcome burnout and restore their inner vitality. Through meditation, breathwork, yoga, journaling, and other time-tested practices, she guides viewers toward renewed energy, joy, and balance.

The MAKE studio has the PRUSA XL 5 head 3d printer, allowing us to print objects with multiple colors and even giving us the the opportunity to use multiple materials during the same print. The way different plastics interact with each other can be utilized to achieve results that might otherwise be impossible.
