KF Boot Camp at Disney Studios is Closing Fast
You have one last chance to sign up your child for our second annual KIDS FIRST! Film Critics Boot Camp taking place July 11-15 on the Disney lot in Burbank, Calif. It’s little more than a week away, and only three slots are open – so act now and click through to register your 8- to 13-year-old for this once-in-a-lifetime experience.
Boot Camp takes the interest kids naturally have in movies and builds an enriching curriculum that teaches valuable visual literacy skills. Watching the latest Disney film – including the new 3-D versio of the classic The Lion King! – will help them gain broader perspective; the kids will learn why and how movies create the impressions they do. Disney experts will also share information about upcoming 3-D technology, and some of the stars from PROM will meet with the Boot Camp-ers for interviews. Slated movies include Winnie the Pooh, The Lion King 3D, PROM, Phineas and Ferb and the all-new Muppets movie.
Filmmaker and Boot Camp director Janet Davidson, a member of hte Directors Guild, will lead the kids in exploring individual elements of filmmaking, from directing and acting to cinematography, writing and art direction. The campers will liearn to write film reviews and review films on camera – and the reviews will be broadcast nationally. We think you’ll agree that this is truly “the opportunity of a lifetime.”
