DATA is a media arts and technology program designed for neurodiverse individuals (such as people with autism or ADHD) ages 13-19. A series of summer and fall workshops will build up different creative and social skills. Students will learn a large range of media-based practices that will suit all interests in technology and art.
ABOUT THE PROJECT
In this filmmaking series of workshops, students will work collaboratively to create short films. Students will learn various elements of the filmmaking process. In preproduction, students will learn storyboarding and scriptwriting. In making movies, students will learn how to use cameras, sound equipment, lighting, and more! In video editing, students will learn editing techniques and basic motion graphics.
In addition to filmmaking, students will play games and increase social skills through various activities in collaboration with Villa Maria’s Achieve Program.
