Make a Movie

In this hands-on and creative filmmaking workshop, your kids can learn the basics of producing, directing and acting in a short film.

Over two days, your kids will work together in small groups, under the guidance of experienced staff, to create a team name for their own movie studio, pitch their ideas, write a script outline, act, direct, and operate a camera.

After filming on location at ACMI and around Federation Square, the group will then cut the film together in our post-production studio, adding special effects and a soundtrack.
