What Kids Will Learn This Summer
The curriculum focuses on the core pillars of digital media production. Instead of just “filming,” campers walk through a structured creative workflow:
1. Planning & Storyboarding
Great videos start with a great plan. Kids will learn how to structure an idea, write simple scripts, and create storyboards so they know exactly what shots they need before they ever hit the record button.
2. Camera Techniques & Lighting
Campers get hands-on experience with framing shots, utilizing stable camera movements, and understanding how basic lighting setups can completely change the professional quality of a video.
3. Digital Video Editing
Using kid-friendly, powerful editing software, students will learn the art of the cut. They will practice adding transitions, layering audio tracks, inserting sound effects, and creating engaging on-screen graphics.
4. Digital Citizenship & Safety
This is the most important piece for parents. The camp heavily emphasizes online safety, copyright rules for music and images, and how to create content responsibly while protecting personal privacy.
