Dear Movie campers & parents –
We’re off and running with this year’s movie camp and the kids are doing a great job! Stephanie, Lelia, Zach and I are so impressed by all the energy and enthusiasm that the kids are bringing to their movies. So far, the kids have divided up into three different groups, and each group is off to a running start on their movie. They have brainstormed ideas, created characters and written scripts, gathered costumes, and started filming. I think there’s even a little editing that has already begun… At this rate, we’ll have three impressive pieces for the final showing.
Please don’t forget that these fabulous movies will be shown next Friday, July 9th at our screening, which will be at 2:00 at the Jane Pickens Movie House. You’re all invited, and we hope to see you there! Campers will be taken down from school by a bus, and pick-up on that final day will be at the Jane Pickens instead of St. Michael’s.
A few other things to note:
- As a reminder, the camp cell phone number is 401-207-7699 (I try to keep me on me at all times).
- We may be asking for a few more costume pieces to come from home for each character. Costumes should be left here for the duration of filming and brought home on the last day of camp.
- Video camp T-shirts are in the works. They will have the Theatre at St. Michael’s logo on the back, and their movie marquis on the front. The order form is included with this letter.
- Each camper will receive a DVD copy of their movie once the final editing has been completed.
- Please don’t drop off your kids before 8:45. I do my best to get here at 8:30 each day, but I am traveling quite a distance, and sometimes hit traffic. Supervision is guaranteed after 8:45!
- There will be no camp this Monday, the 5th of July. Have a wonderful 4th of July weekend!
Thanks again for sending us your kids – they’re wonderful!
Have a great day,
Christy Johnston (camp director)
