Our Filmmaking Camp Directors are chosen from professional ranks and some of the top film making schools in the country.  They instruct our campers in important elements of pre-production, production and post-production, where our campers learn hands on filmmaking technique through digital technology and professional software.  Campers will be immersed in story boarding, shot list creation, casting, shooting and digital film editing.

Our camp staff team consists of dedicated theater and entertainment business practitioners who have worked as nurturing leaders in education, camping and their respective fields.  Staff members include interns and counselors age 18+, and Camp Directors who oversee each camp location. Our counselors have trained experience in dance/choreo, voice, drama, film, modeling and performance instruction.   They enjoy working with children to help them gain confidence, grow as performers, build their interdependent communities and most importantly have FUN!
