HIFF Summer ‘Film Camp’ Returns to the East End

Do you have a budding young filmmaker in your world? Channel his or her creative energy this summer by enrolling your young Scorsese or DuVernay in HIFF’s “film camp” for kids!

HIFF’s Student Filmmaking Workshops give students the opportunity to make their very own short films! Created by HIFF’s Executive Director, independent film producer Anne Chaisson, workshops are held in both East Hampton and Southampton. The workshops give students ages 8 to 15 the opportunity to make their own short films, which are then showcased on screen for family and friends.

This year, we’re holding two Summer 2016 Workshops!

  • Guild Hall, East Hampton: July 18-22
  • Southampton Arts Center: July 25-29

Registration is now open! Please email marissa@hamptonsfilmfest.org to get the ball rolling.

2 Strands:
♦ Introduction to Filmmaking, ages 8-11
♦ Intermediate – Hands-on Filmmaking, ages 12-15

Over the course of one week, students learn the skill of screenwriting, directing, acting, producing and editing, with instruction and hands-on experience from industry professionals.

The short films are showcased on screen that weekend for students to share with family and friends. Each student will take home their very own copy of all the short films created.
