This session introduces young creatives to the thrill and challenge of filmmaking. Campers learn basic filmmaking skills then team up with their peers to make their very own short films using provided equipment. With the wide variety of available shooting locations at First Baptist Church, campers can truly bring their stories to life in this class. At the end of the week, campers will receive a link to their group's work. No previous filmmaking or video editing experience is required. Note: The June 29–July 3 session will have a Horror theme — for teens who love all things supernatural, extraterrestrial, and spooky.
