The summer camp, starting in June, is open to children 7 to 15.
One style kids can employ in their filmmaking is stop motion animation. Digital animation, which is more advanced, is not taught at the camp.
Other campers might make use of a green screen for their movies, learning how to key-tone the background and gaining skills to make a subject invisible, to make objects float or to overlay screens so that a character appears to be talking to a clone of himself.For a film about Pac-Man coming to life, kids overlaid a soundtrack reminiscent of the original retro game.
In past years, campers’ short films have been selected for the Chicago International Children's Film Festival and other juried shows. As campers enter the event with their parents and guests, an Aurora team member using flash photography acts as the “paparazzi.” Guests receive printed invitations and each camp team has the chance to discuss their film in front of the audience.
