It's a Wrap!

Hello! 

I just want to start by thanking you all for allowing your child to participate in our 2012 summer program. All of our 'Film Kids' made each day  full of laughter, fun, and creativity. We believe that our students have created something really special.The footage looks FANTASTIC! Now we begin the editing process, and I can't wait to see the final product.

I will contact you when we have scheduled our red carpet private screening, and keep you posted about film festival submissions. Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns!

See you on the red carpet!

Registration for Film Kids 2012 is now open!

What makes us different?

· Students will learn about more than film! Film Kids is led by local educators. Our filmmaking activities are not only fun, they also support oral and written language!

· Students will select a special area of interest to pursue during the actual filming process. Prior to the first day of camp, students will meet the program director to discuss their area of interest and the role they would like to take in the filmmaking process.

· Your child will be working with other students who share their passion, and are willing to work well in a team setting. Our goal is to create a positive atmosphere where participants feel free to be themselves. All potential participants must participate in an interview prior to registration. Staff will only select students who show a genuine interest in the program and agree to Film Kids Code of Conduct.

 Space is limited. Contact us today for more information, or to schedule your child's interview.
