Camp Cucalorus is around the corner, sign up your child today for a music video filled summer camp!
Feast your eyes on a sneak peak of the music video created by our very own campers last year.
Camp Cucalorus is a week-long immersion into the
world of music videos for budding filmmakers ages 10-18. Packed with behind the
camera training, this summer camp will explore the creative world of music
video production and editing. This four-day intensive camp promises to be a
one-of-a-kind Cucalorus experience.
With industry professionals at the helm,
students will spend one week working in small groups creating music videos for a
local band, this year's band is Justin Lacy and the Swimming Machine.
Not your average four-piece band, Justin Lacy
and the Swimming Machine offers a bevy of sounds that come from the eclectic
collaboration of instruments and musicians. The band, which formed one hot
summer night in 2010 when a cohort of friends decided to perform Lacy’s songs
for an “Anything goes Acoustic Showcase”, has a sound that mixes folk, jazz,
rhythm and blues, rock and a dash of everything else. The band features as many
as 10 performers on stage with an array of instruments ranging from the
saxophone, trumpet, upright bass, mandolin, banjo, spoons and shakers. Their
use of out-of-the box instrumentation, such as tap dancers subbed in for snare
drums, are what drives the heart and soul of this musical machine.
Hands-on instruction from award-winning filmmakers will be paired
with demonstrations from local industry veterans. Each student will have an
opportunity to work with a variety of cameras, take a turn in front of the
camera and learn professional editing software. The band will be performing
live at Jengo’s Playhouse, allowing youth to experiment with concert style
filming and meet the members of the band. In addition to an immersion in the
creative experience, students will get to see their artistic accomplishments in
action at the super-special Premier Screening at Jengo’s Playhouse.
Camp Cucalorus will run 9 a.m. - 3 p.m, July
23-26, 2012. Space is limited so apply today! Camp enrollment is $395 and includes:
Lunch and snacks for all 4 days, a DVD copy of the finished music video, behind
the scenes field trip and 4 tickets to the Premier Screening at Jengo's
Playhouse at 7 p.m. on July 26.
