Why choose NW Film Camp
We’re thrilled to unveil exciting curriculum updates, including our brand-new Creator Camp track, EpicVerse for ages 8–11, and three newly redesigned Filmmaker Camps for ages 12–18. This year’s camps offer more creative choice, deeper collaboration, and expanded pathways for students to grow. From playful, fandom-inspired storytelling to advanced, cinematic filmmaking using industry-standard tools.
“Evelyn was identifying different types of shots as we watched a film on Day 1 of camp. She enjoyed the lessons and activities very much and would gladly attend again.”
“I loved seeing him step out of his shell at Creator Camp, he’s usually shy, but working alongside other kids really brought him out. Every day he came home excited to share what he made and couldn’t wait to go back.”
-
Campers dive into hands-on film projects, guiding their ideas from script to screen. By the end, they’ll premiere their finished films to share with friends and family—an experience they’ll never forget.
-
Working in teams, campers learn to share ideas, take creative risks, and support one another. It’s a fun, encouraging environment where confidence grows and friendships form.
-
Instead of just watching content, campers learn how to create it. Through storytelling, creative writing, and film production, they build real-world skills in a dynamic, hands-on setting.
-
From the first day to the final premiere, campers are fully engaged, having fun, and making lasting memories. It’s the kind of experience they’ll be excited to come back to—and talk about long after summer ends.
Filmmaker Camp for ages 12–18 offers opportunities for students of all skill levels, from beginners to advanced, to explore the art of filmmaking. Participants collaborate with peers while learning how to use cameras, lighting, and other filmmaking gear to produce their own short films. The program also provides a pathway into the Teen Film Lab and internship opportunities, helping students take their skills to the next level.
At NW Film Camp, students don’t just make movies, they make friends, discover their creative voice, and take meaningful steps toward a future in film and media. We have three newly redesigned Filmmaker Camps for ages 12–18.
Digital Shorts Camp (Ages 12–17) – Now in its 11th year, this beginner-friendly camp introduces students to storytelling, directing, cinematography, and editing as they create their first short films using Canon C100 cameras and Adobe Premiere Pro & Audition. Perfect for newcomers and Creator Camp alumni ready to level up.
Director’s Cut: Narrative Filmmaking (Ages 12–17) – Focused on directing, scriptwriting, acting, and narrative storytelling, students collaborate on short films while developing professional production skills. No experience required.
Master Shot: Cinematic Filmmaking (Ages 14–18) – Our advanced, fast-paced camp for serious filmmakers. Students create a short film “proof of concept”, mastering cinematography, lighting, sound, and editing with professional cameras, lenses, and gear. Projects are portfolio-ready and can be submitted to festivals and scholarships.
“I’m so proud and excited hearing about Stephanie’s experience at camp. It’s been incredible to see her grow and level up as a director, thank you!”
Learn video editing with Adobe Premiere Pro
Students interesting in editing will be excited for the opportunity to learn Premiere Pro and Audition when editing our short films. This is a great opportunity aspiring filmmakers to learn more about digital media post production skills and to build student’s digital portfolio.
