Community Alliance for Teen Safety is pleased to offer this free training opportunity to youth.  Participating youth will be introduced to the skills required to create and produce a television show on Derry Channel 17.

Participants will be immersed in the world of a working television station: they will get hands-on experience using modern broadcast equipment with trained professionals. Kids will plan, write, direct, shoot and edit short TV shows and video blogs of their own choosing.

The camp will be composed of mini-workshops in camera operation, set-design, lighting, audio/sound engineering, digital editing, character generation, control room management, producing, directing and TV hosting. At the end of the week, participants will tape a television show hosted, staffed and produced by the kids themselves!

Participants have the option of choosing the Basic 2-day camp (Monday and Tuesday), or the Advanced 4-Day Camp (M, T, W, Th).  On Friday, participants in both sessions will be invited to participate in a full scale actual TV production.

Morning Session: 9:30 - 11:30
Lunch (provided by CATS)
Afternoon Session: 12:30 - 2:30
