This two-week (daytime) film workshop is designed to provide teens both the technical and creative tools to produce their own short-subject videos. Following discussions on film history and theory, students form production teams and produce all aspects of films they conceive from storyboarding and filming to editing and music composition.

But don't worry, we realize that all work and no play makes Fred very dull and uncreative and recreation is a part of every day! After all even the most dedicated filmmaker needs to recharge from time to time with some Ultimate Frisbee, a soccer game or a cool swim on a hot day. At the end of the workshop, students present their films at a screening/reception at our "Green Carpet Premiere." From there selected films are submitted to a variety of film festivals. Fred is a project of the Denver-based Educational Media Organization and Patton Productions LLC in New York City.

Session date: July 9th - 21st at Green Meadows Farm in South Hamilton, MA (www.gmfarm.com).

This program meets Mon-Fri 9AM-3PM for two weeks
