Description

Film Academy will be producing an episodic mockumentary series about a teenage boy band, with an original script and music from current CharacterWorks students. This class will focus completely on PRODUCTION (casting, pre-production, on-location filming). Students will learn about and get to experience all aspects of the production process, giving them a wide view of the film production business. Filming equipment is provided, but students will be art directing the show, using props and sets they create or are able to find.

Since we will film on location most nights, classes will not always be held at Kingsway. Students and parents will be provided with a schedule before each of the three sessions during the year.

The cost for Academy is $325 per session ($250 covers class tuition, plus an additional $75 fee per session for performance rights, artistic/tech team, performance space).
 
Prerequisite: AUDITION ONLY - Auditions for 2024-2025 are closed
