It is a creative studio, with a focus on narrative film and television, events, photography, and writing. Studio Vosges was established in 2015 by Ava Davis, and formally created as a limited liability company in 2019 to help produce a short for its flagship icon, the Duchess of Grant Park. Studio Vosges was created to help lift and highlight the voices of trans, q***r and non-binary voices, espec
ially the voices of trans, q***r, and non-binary voices from people of color. Davis, a black trans q***r woman, noticed the lack of voices in her independent film community and wanted to create opportunities for herself and others. Studio Vosges also works with new filmmakers to help bring their vision to life. We are currently working to produce our first feature film, The Waltz, about a single young trans woman who teams up with a reluctant dance partner to pursue her dream of learning the waltz, only for the two to slowly fall for each other while fighting insecurities and social pressures. THE WALTZ is a sponsored project of Film Independent, a non-profit independent
media arts organization. Film Independent will receive grants for the charitable purposes
of THE WALTZ, provide oversight to ensure that grant funds are used in
accordance with grant agreements, and provide reports as required by the grantor. Contributions for the charitable purposes of THE WALTZ must be made payable
to Film Independent and are tax-deductible to the extent permitted by law. To learn more, please visit https://www.filmindependent.org/programs/fiscal-sponsorship/the-waltz/
