PushPush's New Young Filmmaker Summer Intensive for ages 12-18!
PushPush, in association with its new GRFX Series, is announcing an exciting new advancement to its signature summer camps: a hands-on filmmaking program that will give participants the opportunity to develop and produce an original, festival-worthy, short film with industry professionals.
The four-week intensive will be led by PushPush Theater’s Artistic Director, award-winning Writer/Director/Producer Tim Habeger, along with a wide array of instructors from organizations including: the Atlanta Film Festival, Pop Films, The Plaza Theater, Tyler Perry Studios, Screen Gems studios, and more. These professionals will provide hands-on instruction in their field during the making of the film. This program will culminate in a rough-cut screening for family and friends, followed by a larger premier screening of the finished film at Atlanta's historic Plaza Theater this Fall.
The program is open to highly motivated youths age 12-18 (special consideration needed for younger participants) interested in a focused and collaborative filmmaking experience - in front of the camera and/or behind the camera. Through concentrated teamwork and leadership opportunities, participants will not only have professional work to show for their efforts, but also increase their knowledge and skills in such areas as:
