Every creative project starts with a great idea — but making it a reality? That’s where the real magic happens. At the beginning, the logistics can feel intimidating and endless. But if you keep your eyes on the bigger picture, the pieces will start to fall into place.
On this episode of First Frame, hosts Cameron Zinger and Jennifer Park sit down with STORYHIVE alumnus Jacqueline Clements, co-founder of TCF4 Productions, to explore what it takes to take your idea from concept to creation. Together, they discuss how to stay focused, build momentum, and why it’s okay to ask for help along the way. From producing a travel show in Bolivia to launching a cooking series she never thought would get the greenlight, Jacqueline shares how she’s navigated the ups and downs of the creative process. Her journey from STORYHIVE-supported creator to established producer showcases the program’s commitment to helping emerging talent access and succeed in the broadcasting industry. Plus, she offers a little reminder that it’s never too late (or too early!) to start something new. Listen in for a fresh dose of inspiration and practical advice from a seasoned Canadian creator who embodies the transformative power of community support in building a thriving television career.
