Lights, camera, action…it’s time to bring your stories to life on screen! In this multi-media acting class, you will sharpen your storytelling and acting skills while exploring the basics of filmmaking. Through creating your story, designing backdrops, and acting our scenes, you and your classmates will work together to create never-before-seen short movies. As you create, you will practice:

• Storyboarding as a building block of story creation

• Acting for the camera

• Creating distinct characters 

• Working together as a film crew

…and more! On the last day of class, you’ll have a red carpet premiere for family and friends right in your classroom!
