Film Camp

NPS

Rose Sealey and Will Benefield practice framing a shot.

It's summer and that means it's time to make a movie. Sign up for our third annual Film Camp August 16-20 at Lewis and Clark National Historical Park. All 9th-12th graders who have a strong interest in making a documentary film, want to work in a team setting, and like being outdoors are eligible. 

 

We are pleased to be hosting Film Camp once again with the award-winning NW Documentary Arts and Media from Portland. They are excellent teachers who bring out the best in every student.  

 

What Happens at Camp?

 

Ten teens will divide into three teams and make three short films about the park. Professional gear will be used and techniques to shoot, write, narrate, and edit video will be taught. Students will also gain skills in sequence imaging, story boarding, developing an artistic eye, and finding the essential ingredients for a good story.

 

Film camp costs $50.00 and partial and full scholarships are available. To sign up, fill out an application. All new campers will go through an interview prior to camp. 

 

Don't delay!
