Mixed Media Summer Camp 2018

Are your kids interested in technology and being creative? Register your kids for our Mixed Media Production Summer Camp 2018 for a journey into creativity and discovery. We welcome kids ages 5 -13 for all of our Camps: Technology & STEM activities from 9am-4pm daily. Drop-off between 830-9am.

Our camps are for kids who love to show their creativity and passion for learning technology. The program will introduce the creative design process, production, as well as the system and equipment. Kids will work in teams to develop a product and discover ways to use their critical thinking skills as they develop their new technical skills. Each week focuses on a different theme and will also include science, STEM, and social activities. Please see the details below. The following is a schedule of activities and dates:

Mixed Media Production - Music Production, Film, & Web Design (Two Weeks - $360)

Kids will enjoy using music, video, and photography to bring their creative expressions to life during this camp. The music session will focus on music production using the audio editing tools, equipment, and software of professional music producers. We will have guest producers in the industry to provide a real world experience on how beats are created and music is mixed. The film and photography sessions will operate hand in hand for capturing images and video footage; The kids will learn how to operate the camera and understand terminology. The film production session will focus on pre-production (developing a storyline using a storyboard), production (filming and directing), and post-production (editing) phases. We will use Pinnacle Studio 16 for the video editing, as well as look into other common mobile video editing software. The photography session will focus on capturing images and photo editing using Adobe Photoshop. The final project will consist of a compilation of the student's work as a short film or PSA that will include the music and photography. 

The Web Design session will focus on the programming language HTML. The learning points include tags, styling, links, adding video and photos, terminology, and more. The final project will consist of a personal website for each student in which they have designed and programmed from the ground up. They will incorporate their Music Production and Film Projects into their website as a final project.

Robotics and Coding (Lego Mindstorm EV3) (One Week - $180)

For this camp, kids will use their creativity to develop the skills of an Engineer of Robots. They will design, build, and program the LEGO Mindstorm EV3. The students will learn the basic functions of the robot and program basic movements. With progress, they will work in teams to complete more challenging activities, which will include programming the 4 sensors (ultrasonic, gyro, touch, and color), allowing the robot to respond to different variables in its setting. Students will learn problem solving and critical thinking skills through trial and error experimentation and testing their programming. The final project will consist of the students programming the robot to use 3 of the 4 sensors in an autonomous setting.
