Delivered in partnership with Film Camp in a Box. Fill your week with action, adventure and a lot of comedy in our Hollywood movie-making camp. Mentored by master filmmakers, you’ll make movie magic while exploring the filmmaking process, including pre-production, production and post production. Working in small crews, you’ll learn about cinematography, script writing and digital post-production tools, like Final Cut Pro, iMovie and Canva. You’ll then create, act in and edit a short film and movie trailer, adding special effects, music, voiceovers, titles and sound effects, plus you’ll use the latest technology — MacBooks, 4K cameras, tripods, boom microphones, green screens and aerial drones. You and your crew will also create promotional and advertising assets to showcase your short film to the world and use AI tools to generate an original movie soundtrack. Movies will be presented at our red carpet popcorn film festival and archived on our digital theatre. Note: The camp day is 8:30am to 4:30pm. Camp programming runs from 9am to 4pm. Before & After Care is available for campers who require care before the camp day begins, from 7:30-8:30am, and after the camp day has ended, from 4:30-6pm. Separate registration is required. Must register for Before & After Care at North Thornhill Community Centre for camps located at Stephen Lewis Secondary School.
