SUMMER CAMP: GREAT FILMS STARRING YOU!
June 24 - 28, 10AM - 4PM
Age Range: Grades 7-12 (ages 12-18)
“Great Films, Starring You” emphasizes film appreciation and critical thinking through storytelling, acting, writing and improvisation.
This experience encourages active observation and creative exploration of plot, theme, character, relationships, emotions and subtext. Focus will not be on the technical intricacies of filmmaking, though some will be touched upon as necessary.
All students will receive their own copy of the final film that will premiere on the big screen of the historic Capitol Theatre.
On-Camera Performance Track: Do you love movies? Do you love acting? Jump into this track and spend a week making your dreams come true while collaborating with like-minded kids!
Behind-the-Camera Production Track: If you are a budding filmmaker with your own camera or smartphone, this track is for you! We’ll provide the actors and stories; you get to play with directing, composition and editing. Acceptance into this track is by interview.
