Perfect for action-packed birthday parties with outdoor themed events and unforgettable memories they won’t forget.

"If your child is artistic, visual, and a creative learner, why not let them use their creativity in our cinematography course? Cinematography is the art of telling a story through images. It is the foundation of filmmaking.   This course teaches students how to compose images properly with our digital cameras. Each student will practice taking compositions of their surroundings and creating a digital portfolio at the end of each session. By having a passion for the visual arts and learning how to use their creativity properly, they will be skilled and knowledgeable in using today's technology. Eventually, this course will lead them to become better visual storytellers."
