Media Education

Movie Watchers Club (Virtual)

This workshop helps young views learn how to watch movies for entertainment AND art. This class will teach young viewers the basics of storytelling, genre, style, and the basics of cinematography, production design, sound, and editing. Students will expand their knowledge of movies and have lots of fun in the process! This is the perfect workshop for classes that love a good story and like to look for the details in movies that make them a work of art.

What to Expect in a Workshop

Each one-hour workshop is a combination of lectures and hands-on activities. It is recommended no more than one class per reservation to get the full benefits of a workshop, unless you have less than 15 students per class.

If you want your entire grade level to participate in a workshop or you have any questions about the workshops, dates, and times they are available, please contact the Education department at edu@utahfilmcenter.org.
