Tell Stories Through Film!
In this course, students will become inspired filmmakers as they learn to comprehend the power of storytelling to express their ideas. These young filmmakers will advance their skills and experience as they learn, through creating, the fundamentals of Storytelling.
Your life, your story. Students will dive into the art of storytelling as they express themselves through their own lived experiences. Students will be the main character; the producer; the sound designer; the lighting engineer, and learn to communicate meaning through storytelling. Students will learn to differentiate between fact and fiction and become content creators instead of passive consumers of media. Students will gain a wide understanding of how their story, and the stories of history, work as building blocks for their own video projects.
