Narrative Filmmaking

For rising 9th to 12th grade students & college freshmen!

Ready for the next level?

In this fun, intensive, and fast-paced production workshop, students will work in small groups to write, plan, cast, shoot, and edit a short film in two weeks. With the help of experienced mentors, local actors, and some special guests, workshop participants will take their biggest ideas from script to screen.

Every year, several films from this workshop go on to screen at and win awards from film festivals all over the country. 

This workshop is great for experienced filmmakers looking to build their portfolio or students ready to learn new skills and make longer, more complex projects.
