Junior Video Production Program
For students 12 -17 years old
Motion picture cameras have become so easy to acquire and to operate that filmmakers as young as 12-17 years old can start developing their storytelling skills for the big screen. MDAFI offers a program specifically designed to train junior storytellers in the basic principles and techniques of cinema. Moreover, the program provides an atmosphere conducive to developing the social skills of creative expression and collaboration.
