Just Ad Kids: A three-day Filmmaking Program for Kids 10+ recently took place at the Club Forbes Auditorium over three days. On day one the kids learned about screenwriting, storyboarding, and casting.
Day two, saw the kids bring the script to life. Rehearsing lines, learning acting techniques, and working together to get ready for the shoot. Taking on the role of both the cast and the crew to film their very own TV ads.
The final day was all about bringing everything together! The basics of editing, including how to cut your footage, add sound effects, music, and other finishing touches.
