Final Premiere
Families gather for a red-carpet screening of every finished film.
Campers work together to create a short film from idea to premiere — learning real filmmaking skills while having an unforgettable week.
Every film begins with a story. Campers pitch original concepts, shape characters with distinct voices, and draft a shooting script ready for production learning how professional screenwriters turn raw ideas into structured narratives.
Who calls the shots? Your kid does. Campers learn to block scenes, communicate with actors, choose camera angles, and operate professional-grade equipment the same kind used on LA sets every day.
Campers use green screen technology and practical special effects to bring their ideas to life—whether that’s flying through space, escaping explosions, or creating cinematic illusions.
Every camper steps in front of the lens. Through guided exercises in screen presence, dialogue delivery, and emotional range, kids learn what it takes to create a believable performance on camera.

Production design transforms a blank studio into a living world. Campers build sets, style wardrobe, craft props, and experiment with character-driven makeup to give their film a polished, intentional look.
The final cut is where movies are truly made. Campers learn to assemble raw footage, adjust timing and rhythm, layer in music and sound effects, and add opening titles and credits to complete their film.
Los Angeles is the entertainment capital of the world, and Film Camp puts your child at the center of that energy.
Our Glendale studio sessions combine structured learning with open-ended creativity — helping kids discover what they're capable of when they're given real tools and trusted to use them.
First time holding a camera? Perfect. Our LA instructors specialize in turning curious beginners into confident young filmmakers by the end of the week.
Filmmaking teaches kids to pitch ideas, accept feedback, adapt on the fly, and stand behind their creative choices — skills that stick long after camp ends.
Camera work, sound design, directing, acting, and post-production — campers walk away with tangible skills rooted in the same craft practiced across Hollywood every day.
The final day delivers a moment your family won't forget — a proper screening where campers debut their finished film in front of everyone who matters to them.
Both sessions take place at Magellan International School in Austin from 9am–4pm. Spots are limited — reserve early.

Our Los Angeles summer camp welcomes children ages 7 through 14. We organize campers into age-appropriate groups so younger kids (7–10) can focus on imagination, play, and foundational storytelling, while older campers (11–14) take on more technical challenges and leadership roles within their crew.
More than okay — most of our campers arrive as total beginners. Our LA instructors are trained to meet each child exactly where they are. By mid-week, even the most camera-shy kids are calling "action" with confidence.
Just a packed lunch, a water bottle, and clothes they're comfortable moving in. Film Camp provides all cameras, microphones, lighting, editing equipment, and snacks. Kids who want to bring wardrobe pieces or small props for their film are welcome to do so.
Cancel 14+ days before your session starts and receive a full refund. Between 7 and 13 days out, we issue a 50% refund. Inside the 7-day window, we offer full credit toward any future Film Camp session. Life happens — we'll always work with you.
Each LA session is capped at 12 campers — no exceptions. Within that group, kids split into production teams of 4–6, ensuring every child gets real hands-on time with equipment and one-on-one guidance from instructors.
Absolutely. Our rotation system guarantees every camper experiences both sides of the camera. Whether your child gravitates toward directing, operating equipment, or performing, they'll spend meaningful time in each role throughout the week.
All camp activities happen indoors at Solar Studios in Glendale. The space is fully climate-controlled and purpose-built for production work, so weather is never a factor in our schedule or programming.
It's our favorite part of the week. Parents, siblings, grandparents, and friends are all invited to the red-carpet premiere starting at 3:00 PM on the final day. Arrive early, grab a seat, and get ready to watch your child's film debut on the big screen.
Enroll in Los Angeles' hands-on filmmaking camp for kids ages 7–14. Weekly sessions run June through July 2026 at Solar Studios in Glendale. Only 12 spots per week — claim yours now.
