Where Learning Meets Creativity
Film School 4 Teens is designed to be an online and self-paced way to ignite creativity, inspire storytelling, and nurture the next generation. We offer options for future filmmakers, screenwriters, video editors, photographers, graphic designers, actors, and artists. Through family-friendly courses, students learn the fundamentals of digital media arts along with other creative electives. Engaging video lessons, student workshops and hands-on projects help students develop their skills while encouraging their unique artistic voices.
Our catalog continues to grow with new additions like Intro to Screenwriting and Graphic Novel 101 – Creating Your Own Comic Book, giving students even more ways to bring their stories to life. Most courses are independent and self-paced, while select electives also provide opportunities for students to belong to an online creative community.
We are also branching out to offer Life Skills 101, helping students learn essential skills for independent living—intentionally, not just on the go.
Let us help your students tell their story and discover their unique talents. Look for even more creative electives coming soon!
