THE MOVIE LAB
6 Weeks
Join us for six weeks of cinematic adventure as we explore influential films from different genres – thrillers, comedies, adventures, dramas, and more. Each week we’ll watch a classic movie with fresh popcorn and snacks, then dive into fascinating discussions about what makes these films memorable. We’ll uncover the storytelling techniques, cinematography, and behind-the-scenes secrets that shaped cinema history. Why do these movies still captivate audiences decades later? What creative tricks did directors use before modern technology? Ready to watch films like never before?!
Ages 12 – Adult: Sundays, 1:00pm – 3:0pm; begins September 21
Cost: $350

YOUNGER MOVIE MAKING
10 Weeks

Students work together to create their very own movie! Each week our movie makers will participate in the many behind the scenes aspects of filmmaking: writing, directing, camera work, set design, costumes, etc. And of course everyone has the opportunity to be in front of the camera and be one of the stars of the movie!  At the end of our sessions we come together and watch the finished film on a large outdoor screen to celebrate all of their hard work. And everyone gets a link to download the movie to keep.
