Filmmakers Collaborative announced its annual April break film programs for students. FC Academy provides film classes for middle and high school students, taking them through the entire filmmaking process, ending the week having produced their own short film.
FC Academy will offer five sessions during the week of April 18th which will include in-person and online classes. Registration is now open at filmmakerscollab.org.
Through the weeklong program, students will learn the principles of animation, scriptwriting, storyboard sketching, character development, improvisation, and camera skills.
They will write, shoot, and edit a film in a genre of their choosing. The classes are taught by professional filmmakers using editing software such as Adobe Premiere Pro and Stop Motion Studio.
In addition to the in-person classes, FC Academy is offering an online class, which will allow kids to bring their creativity to life all from the comfort of their own homes.
Students will need to provide their own video camera or smartphone to participate in the virtual and Stop-Motion Animation courses. All final projects are eligible for submission into the 2021 Boston International Kids Film Festival.
This April, students will be practicing social distancing whenever possible in class and will be required to wear a mask at all times. In addition to in person classes, FC academy is offering a digital class that will be streamed online.
Students in the online class will still write, shoot, and edit their own films, but they will do so from their own home. Students will be asked to provide their own video camera or smartphone to both the online and Stop-Motion Animation classes.
Registration is now open for all classes.
