Lights, camera… smartphone! In this hands-on filmmaking class, students will explore the core elements of powerful short films—story structure, visual composition, editing, and emotion—through collaborative analysis and creative play. Together, we’ll study iconic on-screen moments to uncover what makes them work, then put that knowledge into action. Each student will write, shoot, and edit their own original short film using only a smartphone or tablet. No big cameras. No excuses. Just bold ideas, real storytelling, and the tools you already carry.
*Students must have their own device to use. No devices will be distributed by Stagecraft.
⚠️ Parents/Guardians are strongly advised to look into the following films before registering. We will be watching, dissecting, and discussing scenes from the following films: Inside Out, the Iron Giant, Paddington 2, Coco, Matilda, Kubo and the Two Strings, Wall-E
Wednesdays from 5:00-7:00
August 6- November 5 (2hrs/wk for 16 weeks= 32 hours)
Performance November 12 @ 6
32 hours / $280.00= $8.75 per class ($4.38 per hour)
