Behind the Scenes
Do you want to spend your summer being creative rather than competitive?
For two weeks, teens with a passion for screenwriting, filmmaking, and acting will come together to learn the ins and outs of producing a short film along side local and Los Angeles industry professionals. Movie Camp is unlike any other program in Portland, in that all of the campers are working together to see a short film grow from the idea to a red carpet premiere.
Movie Camp is a day camp set at Cine Rent West, the largest professional production soundstage in Portland, OR. Classes are composed of 15 students and are divided into four sessions. Students are taught by industry professionals and guest lecturers, and will gain a firm grasp in the concepts of media and be able to apply their understandings while using industry grade equipment to create a short film. Classes have overlapping schedules so that the students from different camps will work together and gain a more intensive movie making experience. At the end of the project each student will come away with a DVD of the finished film, and a lot of great work to add to their college applications.
Additionally there is a two week Music Video Camp, where students will audition and accept a local band as their client, and create a music video from concept to finished product.
