In this dynamic class, students blend sculpture, painting, writing, filmmaking, and sound design to create captivating short films. Working in groups, they craft 3D characters from clay and scenery from recyclable materials, while exploring inspiration from music, books, and videos to develop original stories. Students learn editing techniques to add sound effects, voices, and music, culminating in a final screening day filled with snacks and fun activities to celebrate their creative achievements.

FULL CLASSES
Our classes have limited spots each season. If a class you’re interested in shows as CLASS FULL, you can still join our waitlist by emailing or calling us. Please note that our website is manually updated to reflect available spots, so it's still best to reach out or create an account to check class availability.
Our waitlist operates on a first-come, first-served basis. We will contact you via email or phone if a spot becomes available for your registration. Please note that joining the waitlist does not guarantee admission to the class.
Typically, we offer the same class in the following season. Feel free to check our website periodically or sign up for our SAC eNews to receive updates on current and upcoming classes/events.
REGISTERED BUT UNPAID
If you’ve registered for a class but haven’t completed payment, we will follow up with you. If we don’t hear from you, we may need to offer your spot to the next person on the waitlist. Thank you for your understanding.
