Students pitch story ideas and several are selected for class production.
Students then work in groups to write, plan, videotape and edit their films.
On the final day, projects are screened and critiqued, and an overview of festivals, distribution and funding is provided. Students focus on their self-image by building confidence and commitment and by challenging themselves to take creative risks in their work. A selection of work is videotaped for playback and critique. With an emphasis on enjoying the experience, students learn to act with commitment, honesty and a great deal of fun. Students acquire on-camera acting skills through script analysis and character study.
