FAQs

Will we actually be making movies?
You bet. Each group will write, film, perform in, and direct two short films from start to finish.

How many students are in the camp?
We’ll be hosting up to 15 students, ages 10-18

Last year, there were two groups, did that change?
Yes, Matt & Chris made the decision to merge the morning & afternoon groups into one morning group for the 2019 camp for a collection of reasons. We hope this doesn’t prevent anyone from attending and enjoying this year’s camp.

What do I need to already know before camp?
Students need no pre-existing knowledge of filmmaking to attend. Just a desire to learn and be a team player on our film crew.

I did camp last year. Can I do it again?
Absolutely! Everyone was great and we'd be happy to have you again.

What size shirt should I order?
We order our shirts from CustomInk.com.
Shirt Size Chart: Kid’s / Standard

My brother/sister/friend wants to do camp with me. Is there a discount?
We offer a 10% discount for registrations of more than one student.

Will we do any special effects?
We’ll be focused on “practical effects” that can be achieved through camera angles and other movie magic.

Do I have to perform on camera?
Not at all. We want everyone to be comfortable. Anyone who wants to be on camera can be, but no one has to be.

*A Note About Video Editing: We will be editing our films as a group to create one cohesive film. Matt will operate the editing software based on the decisions of the group, while explaining the concepts of editing and the basics of the software. Students will also have the option to download all of their film's footage after camp in order to create their own "Director's Cut" at home.

If registering more than one student, use code SIBLINGS to save 10%
although each student needs a separate registration to provide their details.
