The first, held last week, was the On-Air Studio Camp, during which campers learned to produce a newscast and a talk show using Bryant’s professional-grade studio and control room.
This week Bryant is holding an Avid Editing Camp, in which participants learn to edit using the Avid computer editing system, the standard for the film and TV industry.
Bryant was not the only place for video campers last week. At the University of Rhode Island, the Flickers Arts Collaborative, producer of the Rhode Island International Film Festival, held its ninth annual KidsEye Summer Filmmaking Camp. URI donates the space for the camp, which costs $335, while the equipment is provided by Rule Broadcast Systems in Watertown, Mass.
KidsEye divided its 34 [10 to 16-year-old] participants into three teams, and had each of them make a short film and music video, using digital video cameras.
