A smartphone, tablet, or camera with enough space to
record video. We suggest downloading iMovie for Macs or
Premiere Rush for PC/Android.
How can parents support their child during the course?
Guardians are encouraged to share which soft skill they'd
like their child to improve upon & we'll personalise sessions
where possible. For the weekly camps, friends & family
are invited to watch the students' finished films!
What activities will students participate in?
Our classes are a mix of theory discussions, interactive games, independent thinking, & hands-on practice! Online, we create a true virtual film set environment, where kids can collaborate with others from around the globe!
How advanced are the classes?
Students don't need any prior filmmaking experience, but
classes are designed to support more tech-savvy learners.
We demystify the filmmaking process to make it accessible
for people of all backgrounds & levels.
