Mini Movie Makers Holiday Program
Ages 5–8 | 10:00am – 3:00pm | Monday 19th January | 20 Haughton Road, Oakleigh | $100 inc. GST
What to bring: healthy lunch, snacks, water bottle, and USB or SD card
Lights, camera… imagination! In this fun-filled, one-day workshop, our youngest creatives will step into the world of movie-making through playful games, character work, and craft activities. From improv exercised to crafting their very own props, students will explore storytelling in a safe and encouraging environment.
Together, we’ll rehearse and film a short two-person scene (sent out two weeks before the program), giving students the chance to experience what it’s like on a real set, complete with lights, cameras, and applause! There’s no pressure to memorise lines perfectly - it’s all about fun, confidence, and creativity.
What They Will Walk Away With:
A filmed scene on USB or SD card to proudly share with family and friends
Hands-on experience with acting, voice work and improvisation
Boosted confidence, creative thinking, and performance skills
Their very own prop creation to take home
New friends and fun memories from a day full of playful acting and imaginative adventures
Parents can drop their Mini Movie Makers off at 10am and pick them up at 3pm. By the end of the day, they’ll leave with new friends, new skills, and their very own professionally filmed scene to take home on USB or SD card!
