Short Summary
Beer Academy is a travel TV show created by film and media students in Charleston, South Carolina. The entirety of the film crew comes from Trident Technical College students. We filmed an entire Pitch Episode in Charleston, SC over the course of 9 months. The pitch episode premiered during Charleston's Beer Week in September 2018 and won the Best of Show award for WRPN's Global Webisode Competition in December 2018.
