One Week!

 

1 Week! The Summer Video Production Film class starts one week from today! I hope you all are as excited as we are to start this. Later this week I will have an email sent to all families and will try to get emails for all students and send an email for them too. The basic plan for almost all of you is to make a film from start to finish over one week. The whole class is two weeks from June 3-14th. If you are doing the whole class, your first film will be done June 7th , and then you will make a second done June 14th. Why is this worth talking about now? Because if you are doing only one of the two weeks, you will get a complete experience and have a film done at the end, and if you are doing the whole class, you can make deals with yourself now. I want you thinking now what kinds of stories you want to tell? Spooky, fun, silly, action, animated, magical? I want you thinking this week about what you want to make. When we meet on Monday, we will share ideas to prompts I give. So, if I give the prompt, The Magic Eyepiece. Think about what The Magic Eyepiece can mean for a scary horror movie. Or for an action film. Or a beautiful story of friendship. Or a science fiction story. See what I mean? Start thinking about what kinds of films you want to make. Getting in groups based on what kind of film each of us wants to make will allow us to get started.

One Month!

 It's May 3, 2024.  One month from today the Summer 24 Video Production class begins!  June 3-14.

Basic info 9am-3pm Mon-Fri over the two weeks.

I'll send emails when we get closer with info about pickup/dropoff, eating, preparation for the class, and more.

We live near White Rock Lake where this class was born.  Every year about this time the first Queen Anne Laces start to bloom in the fields.  They're an invasive species for our Blackland Prairie but for me they are a harbinger of the summer class and it gets me excited and ready for the new summer class.  I'm looking forward to Summer 24 filmmaking.  Go team y'all!
