Filmmaking (AM)
Ages (8 to 10)
Want your child to create impressive special effects videos? Most movies students watch today involve special effects, but students rarely know how they’re created, which means they can’t apply them to their own films. In this camp hosted by Babel Film Workshop, students will be introduced to the exciting world of special effects filmmaking by creating special effects mini films. This summer, they will:
- Learn filming, acting, editing, and popular special effects from Hollywood movies
- Make mini films with blockbuster-themed special effects
- Feel empowered to create impressive videos using everyday technology
- Work with teachers who have professional filmmaking experience
No prior experience or specialized equipment are required. Parents/guardians are invited to a Showcase on the last class. Limited spaces only! Enroll now to not miss out on the fun of making special effects films!
Full-Day Camp Option (9:00 - 15:30)
PM Camps are available for campers who prefer to join a full-day camp from 9:00 - 15:30 (AM + PM Camp). Please note that students will be required to bring a packed lunch and healthy snacks each day of the program, and there will be no access to refrigeration or microwaves. Staff members will supervise children during the lunch break, which will take place from 12:00 to 12:30.
All camps are conducted in English.
