For rising 1st-3rd graders, Movie Playground is an introduction and exploration of the world of moviemaking! With guidance from a professional filmmaker, campers will learn the basics of how a movie is made--from the spark of an idea all the way to showing it on the big screen. Using popular family-friendly films as inspiration for movie-themed activities, campers will gain an understanding of the fundamentals of visual storytelling, world-building, character creation, and acting. Campers will put their new skills to the test by creating their own mini-movies--all while learning the ropes of being on a movie set--in this fun, hands-on, creative environment.
Camp Showcase: There will be a mini-movie screening on Friday, June 6 @ 3:30pm.
What you'll need for camp:
- Filled water bottle
- Sack lunch
- Additional snacks as needed
- iPhone or iPad*
- Closed-toe shoes (no flip flops/sandals allowed)
*Although we encourage campers to use their own device if they currently have one, an iPhone/iPad is not a requirement.
