Commercial Production
Ages 14 Through 21 Can Join
Make a PSA Short Film!
This is Light House Studio’s 11th year partnering with local nonprofits to create a Public Service Announcement (PSA). Students will read through applications and choose which nonprofit they want to feature before pitching and storyboarding their concepts.
Based on the project and concept, students will use different video techniques (e.g., animation, time-lapse, etc.) to grab the viewer's attention and engage them with the cause. Students will leave this project knowing how to “hook” viewers during a PSA.
This free workshop is a great way to learn new skills, build your portfolio, and earn community service credit.
Contact our Programs Team if you have any questions!
