Lights, Camera, Action!
In this age of video-taking phones, webcasts and YouTube, everyone, it seems, is an auteur. Your daughter dreams of being a real-life iCarly; your son aspires to be Spike Jonze (skateboard and all). And you wouldn't mind if one of them turned out to be a Spielberg in the making.
If the phrase "Mom! Phineas and Ferb are making a title sequence!" is frequently caught around your house, sign up your aspiring cinematographers and animators for a class at the new Media Arts Lab at Jacob Burns Film Center. With classes in production, animation and songwriting, kids (and you - there are plenty of adult classes as well) can make their own short films, learn production, even write and produce their own theme song (and lets face it; every one needs a theme song). Got a spectator on your hands? Let them learn the art of criticism (of films, at least). Now in their second year of classes, moms of previous students are giving it two thumbs up.
Registration is still open for classes, so don't miss out!
