>> Summer Camps
Movie Makers on the news :
Movie Makers' summer day camps are like a whole session in one week! Each week 15 young people will participate in the writing, directing, acting and camera work to create their very own movie.
Beginning only with the theme for that week (see below) we'll create our story, develop our characters, design sets, even work on costumes and make-up. Then we'll get a crash course in camera work and filming techniques using digital video equipment.
Putting all the skills together, we'll spend the week making our movie. All participants will spend time in front of and behind the camera, with the opportunity to focuse on the parts of movie making they enjoy the most. At the end of each week, we will have made our movie
A few weeks later, we'll gather for a premiere party where we'll watch our movie on the big screen. And each participant receives a DVD copy of the movie to keep.
Our camps are separated by age. The younger group is for kids 6 - 10 years old. The older group is for young people 11 to 17.
Summer camp sessions are themed.
That means we know ahead of time what genre we will be working with. Look below to see the schedule for our 2009 summer camps.
Each week-long summer camp costs $250, and includes the week of camp, the premiere party, and a copy of the movie on DVD.
Camp Hours are 9:00 AM - 3:00 PM each day. If your child needs extended care, we offer extended hours of 8 AM - 5 PM for an additional $50/week.
