We see film as a means to explore the world around us. The program focuses on kid-made projects from start to finish. Kids learn by exploring, trying, testing, making mistakes, refining, and always while having fun.
CinemaKidz has developed a deep understanding of child cognitive development and the important role creativity plays in building self-confidence and critical thinking. The program is designed to engage children in ways that complement and enhance traditional education.
Kids take the reins, and are empowered as they are guided through the creative, technical medium by experts in the field. We focus on collaboration, just like on a real film set!
Children are actively engaging with film, and media arts. While technology is an important part of filmmaking, kids are engaging with a wide variety of hands-on elements as well beyond screen usage. Kids learn to build costumes and props, learn how maneuver lighting, gels, and production set up. They are building characters, or drawing and planning with paper and colored pencil.
