Students will move story concepts into fully realized film productions! Working in small creative teams, campers will refine scripts, storyboard scenes, rehearse, film, and help edit their own original, black-and-white, short, silent movies. With a focus on creative ownership and ensemble collaboration, campers will produce a polished, final film while developing a range of filmmaking (and life!) skills.

The week culminates in a dazzling, Hollywood-style, red-carpet premiere, on July 17 where campers’ scenes will be showcased on the big screen with live Wurlitzer theatre organ accompaniment, giving students and their families a true silent-film era experience

Step into the world of silent movies and discover how filmmakers worked story magic without words! This playful and imaginative silent film camp introduces younger students to the foundations of silent cinema with a focus on movie magic, visual effects, and creative expression. 

Campers will learn expressive acting, visual storytelling, and classic silent film techniques, with a special emphasis on green screen technology and cinematic effects. They bring these threads together by creating a high-energy silent movie scene, experimenting with illusion, movement, and movie magic. 

The camp concludes with the same Hollywood-style red-carpet premiere on July 17, where students’ work will be presented on the big screen alongside live Wurlitzer theatre organ accompaniment.
