Spring Camp Starts April 13th
Ages 8-11 are invited to join us for Spring Creator Camp in La Jolla! Creator Camp: EpicVerse is a filmmaking program where students dive into storytelling through puppet making, creating music videos, digital shorts, stop-motion animations, and more, transforming their ideas into vibrant on-screen worlds and stories to share.
Summer Camp Starts June 29th
This summer, our 7-week Film Camp expands into two creative tracks running side by side: Creator Camp for ages 7–11 and the all-new Filmmaker Camp for ages 12–17. Younger campers will explore storytelling through hands-on creation like puppetry, animation, music videos, and digital shorts, while teens dive deeper into cinematic filmmaking, developing original stories and producing short films from concept to screen. Together, these programs create an exciting new season where imagination, collaboration, and filmmaking come alive for every age.
Join us at SDFAS!
