Youth! Camera! Action! Summer Eco- Video Camp (Aug 9 - 29)    Mon Aug 9 to Sun Aug 29, 2010, Toronto, ON

Youth! Camera! Action! Summer Video Camp Opportunities

About Youth Camera Action: Unique to the city of Toronto, Youth Camera Action! is an environmental video production program specifically designed for youth between the ages of 13 -- 18 years. This action packed two-week summer program is open to youth across the Greater Toronto Area and provides a unique and creative opportunity to learn about the environment, get practical, hands-on video-making experience and create their own short environmental video projects in all genres.

Completed projects premiere as part of the Green Sprouts Youth Filmmakers Showcase at the Planet in Focus International Environmental Film & Video Festival each fall. YCA films have also gone on to enjoy screenings at other youth film festivals throughout North America and have been broadcast on national television!

Program Details

Week One: Participants will divide into small groups and through a series of challenging workshops and demonstrations will acquire fundamental video-making skills (concept development, camera, sound, lighting). Students will learn about the environment and explore ways of creatively and visually expressing environmental ideas and issues. They will complete the week by shooting their videos around the city (with proper supervision).

Week two: Post production - editing, special effects and sound design! We will finish the week by having a "premiere" of the works, which will screen on Friday afternoon at Innis Town Hall. Family and friends welcome.

When: August 9th to 29th, 2010, Mondays to Fridays.

Where: Downtown Toronto

Fee: $250 for the entire two weeks. Planet in Focus will offer subsidies for those requiring financial assistance.
