The Media Arts Center of San Diego helps elementary school students learn about movie-making during their spring break.
This week is spring break for many students across San Diego County, but the learning hasn’t stopped for some young kids who are working on their own original short films. KPBS Education Reporter M.G. Perez takes us to City Heights for the movie-making magic.
The Media Arts Center of San Diego is collaborating with the San Diego Foundation to educate the spring breakers in the basics of movie-making. They are all 6 to 12 years old, from public and charter schools. The week-long camp uses project-based learning with students divided into three cohorts. Each cohort works on grade-level appropriate assignments including stop motion movies, editing, and sound design.
“You have two different perspectives. If you can combine them together it makes it even better," said Devone Jones, an award-winning professional filmmaker and one of the teaching artists hired to share their experience with students."If not, you have to take one for the team and say, ‘Okay, I’ll do your idea this time, next time we’re going to do my idea.’”Edwin Cruz is a professional feature film editor serving as a teaching artist for the Media Arts San Diego spring break camp.
