Hands-On Digital Filmmaking for Teens - Teen Camp

Course Description

This course teaches advanced production and post-production techniques used on the sets of Hollywood productions. You’ll use telephoto and wide-angle lenses and explore advanced shooting techniques to expand your cinematic style. You’ll learn about professional audio--using shotgun, lavalier and condenser microphones. And you’ll delve into complex special effects and motion graphics.

While learning these techniques and tools, you’ll create your own film that you can enter in student film festivals and include in your portfolio. Finally, students will screen their films in an independent film festival environment.
