In this workshop, Teens will learn:  media related production and editing skills (lighting, camera, production, story-boarding, etc.), writing and collaborative team effort skills, interviewing skills, and performance documentation.  
Most importantly teens will have an avenue to creatively and collaboratively work with peers to “voice” ideas, concerns, hopes and individual creative skills.
partially funded by a Good Works Grant from Grand Traverse Rotary Club.  There is no charge for the current summer workshop/project.
