Digital Filmmaking Camp
Digital Filmmaking Camp
Get ready to dive into the thrilling world of cinema at Austin School of Film’s award-winning Digital Filmmaking Camp! Going strong for TWO DECADES helping youth tell their stories and learn the craft of filmmaking.
Guided by industry professionals & educators, this camp takes young creators through the entire filmmaking journey—from concept and screenwriting to production and post-production. Campers will work hands-on with real cameras, lighting, and sound equipment in our studios and bring their stories to life with cutting-edge editing software in our lab. Designed to be both beginner-friendly and full of hands-on excitement, this camp lets youth experience the true art of filmmaking.
In “crew format”, campers will collaborate, share ideas, and produce their own short films, gaining practical skills and invaluable experience every step of the way. By camp’s end, they’ll have created 1-2 five-minute narrative films, ready for a big-screen debut!
SCREENING SHOWCASE: All short films will debut at an end-of-camp screening with complimentary food & drink for family & friends. We’ll also feature all work completed in 2025 Summer Camp at an official showcase at Alamo Drafthouse in August 2025.
Focused on narrative storytelling, this camp promises a full cinematic adventure! For those eager to explore music video production, don’t miss our Music Video Production Camp!
