New York City Summer 2010
2 Week Intensive Filmmaking Camp
Make a statement this summer by doing something truly exceptional - create a movie, from script-to-screen! Young filmmakers will gain knowledge in every aspect of filmmaking. The first week will focus on screenwriting. With guidance from Patrick McCullough and the professional filmmakers that make up the Filmmakers Ink staff, your child will develop a film script. Our staff will then guide all of the young filmmakers as they work together as a team to produce films from these scripts as Actors, Directors, Camera and Sound. From script development to creating lighting design and shot lists, the process of making your film will build confidence, hone your ability to work as a member of a team and leave you with a finished film to add to your portfolio.
Join us this summer and find your own voice through film. Make movies, make friends, and make an impact!
