Short Film Project For Teens

Screen’s Short FIlm Project for Teens! This immersive, experiential, project-based learning environment will give young filmmakers the opportunity to work on a safe, fun, and collaborative film set. Filmmakers will learn and actively participate in each stage of film production:Pre-Production: In this 5-week phase, students will get a “writer’s room” experience–a collaborative space where the groundwork for creative ideas comes together. Students will learn world-building by exploring and incorporating elements of screenwriting. Next, filmmakers will go through visual pre-production, shot lists, scheduling, and casting. Production: In this full-day phase (Saturday, April 15, 10am – 6pm), each student filmmaker will get a professionally guided hands-on experience to make their story come to life. They will learn how to effectively communicate as actors and filmmakers, rotate through crew positions, and practice industry-standard set operations. Post-Production: In the final 2 project sessions, filmmakers will collaborate through the post-production and editing process and will complete their short film on the final day of the project. Each filmmaker will have the chance to rotate through a variety of film set positions both in front of and behind the camera. Come ready to find your creative voice! In addition to regular class times, students need to be available for the Production Day on Saturday, April 15 from 10am-6pm.Enrollment Deadline: March 3 Prerequisite: Previous BAFT/Constellation Short Film Project; BAFT/Constellation Movie Camp; A Crash Course in Moviemaking; Or equivalent experience.
