DIGIQUEST TV & VIDEO WORKSHOPS

We are happy to announce the Digiquest schedule for the summer of 2011! Digiquest is a series of media workshops for youth that explore different areas of digital media production. In week-long sessions, campers can work with their peers to create TV shows, videos, and animations! This summer, we have five camps available and a brand-new Advanced Animation camp for our experienced students! Other changes for 2011 include reduced rates and a new 9:30am-3:30pm schedule.
