Campers will engage in hands-on exploration of the filmmaking process in both the morning and afternoon, including pre-production, production and post production.

In addition to their creative endeavors, campers will enjoy the outdoor pedestrian area of the Distillery District, providing a unique and inspiring backdrop for their filmmaking adventures. They will also have the opportunity to work in studios, enhancing their filmmaking skills in a dynamic environment.

Working in small crews, they will learn about cinematography, script writing and editing. Campers will then create, act in and edit a short film and movie trailer. Participants will have the opportunity to use our latest technology, including Macbooks, 4K cameras, tripods, boom microphones, green screens and the use of an aerial drone. Movies will be available to view from home at your convenience via our Movie Portal.

***Lunch: We offer two lunch options for your camper’s convenience. You may choose to send a packed lunch from home each day or opt for a delicious meal prep from a restaurant/shop in the Distillery District. Each lunch option is available for an additional $20 per day. Please note that while we strive to provide diverse and tasty options, we regret to inform you that we are unable to accommodate specific allergies.
