As the landscape of storytelling continues to evolve, where audiences crave authenticity as much as cinematic quality, the Boston Creator Accelerator has added another rising force to its roster: Anawan Studios, a full-service production company based in Brockton, Massachusetts.
The Accelerator, a collaboration between Jaylen Brown’s Boston Xchange and Jrue and Lauren Holiday’s JLH Fund, launched with the goal of empowering underrepresented creators and entrepreneurs across Boston. From tech founders to nonprofit leaders, the initiative spotlights those building something original, impactful, and deeply rooted in community. With Anawan Studios, the program welcomes a team that’s redefining what local production can look like at scale.
With a growing portfolio that includes visual campaigns for the MBTA, Mass General, and the National Park Foundation, Anawan’s work is where cultural fluency meets cinematic ambition. Their approach blends storytelling instincts with a deep awareness of the communities and clients they serve, producing work that feels grounded, relevant, and resonant.
As demand intensifies for creative voices who can deliver both emotional impact and high production value, Anawan is developing the internal backbone to meet that need, building a sustainable business that bridges the gap between independent and studio-level polish. From branded media to streaming content, they’re expanding both their technical capabilities and narrative scope, positioning themselves as a new kind of creative studio: rooted in place, but built for wide reach.
Being part of the Boston Creator Accelerator gives them access to mentorship, funding, and strategic support to scale that vision even further. It’s a fit that mirrors the program’s larger mission, investing in creators whose work is not only exceptional, but intentional.
