Does your child love movies? Now they can learn to make their own and star in them!

Your kids can take the first steps on their filmmaking journey with this hands-on creative workshop designed for lower-middle primary ages.

Our experienced staff will guide your kids to plan and create a short film using only a tablet. From planning a story to shooting and editing, kids will participate in all aspects of movie creation while making new friends along the way. They will also learn skills to continue their exploration of movie-making at home with their own devices.
