KIDoglaz Summer Camp Film Academy | Greece | Programme Overview

​

Filmmaker and cinematographer Evangelos Vlachakis (Cinevangelos) has taught filmmaking at the University of Worcester U.K. and has conducted film and photography workshops in Greece and Cyprus. He has personally contributed to films that won numerous international awards. Evangelos has a wealth of experience teaching professional film skills to people of all ability levels and is a fun person to be around. Regardless of your previous film knowledge and experience, Evangelos and his staff will break the exciting and challenging aspects of movie-making into simple steps. Both uninitiated and advanced film students can quickly grasp Evangelos’ instructions and put to good use in their projects.

Traditionally, mornings and sometimes during the afternoons and evenings, you will benefit from a complete crash course in the fundamentals of movie making, at the same time working on your personal film project. Each camper is a member of a small group who serve as crew for each other's projects. Using the group to help brainstorm and offer feedback, each camper's personal project proceeds through carefully planned steps from initial concept to burned DVD. Camper-directors will use eager campers and staff from Porto Grana Hub as their actors and extras and can choose from a spectacular array of camp activities and scenic locations to use in their movies.

The film camp is known for its enthusiasm and creativity. Don't be surprised if you leave camp amazed at what you accomplish with your finished film projects!
