All programs and workshops are solely owned and operated by the New York Film Academy and
are not affiliated with Universal Studios or Harvard University.

Whether you see yourself pursuing a career in filmmaking or want to learn these practical and applicable skills for yourself, New York Film Academy’s film camps are perfect for everyone with an interest in making films.
In all New York Film Academy (NYFA) summer film camps for teens, each student writes, shoots, directs and edits his or her own films. Our film camps are designed for people with little or no experience in making films. The programs focus on the fundamental elements of visual storytelling that enable the students to direct their own projects.
During NYFA’s teen film camps, each weekday is split between in-class instruction and on-set production. The below subjects are taught both in-class and on set, where students get to apply the lessons they learned in the classroom to a real film set. In our longer film camps (three, four and six-week), these subjects will be treated in greater detail and taken to a higher level than in the shorter camps.
Students in longer programs make more films and, therefore, have more opportunities to develop their abilities and employ what they have learned. But regardless of the length of the camp, our students would agree that they learned more in even just one week than some learn in a month through being on set and gaining hands-on experience working on actual productions.
At the end of each camp, the students’ directorial work is celebrated in a screening open to crew, faculty, family, and friends.
Some of the classes and subjects students can expect to cover in the New York Film Academy’s filmmaking camps include the following.
As the director is the leader of a film set, students will learn the language and practice of filmmaking so that they can apply this knowledge to their own original films. They will discuss shooting plans for their film projects and screen their work with their instructor throughout the course.
Directing is approached as the art of visual storytelling. Students will find that directing the camera concerns more than just where to place the camera. Through hands-on demonstrations, the students will learn how camera movement, visual arrangement, and editing patterns not only depict the action but also express the underlying drama. Each student directs a series of films in crews of four. Students also rotate in these crews among the principal film crew positions. Crews are required to meet each week with the directing instructor to review scripts and shooting plans.
It’s the script that is the backbone of any film and in NYFA’s summer film camps for teens, students will become comfortable writing original screenplays. Students learn the process of taking take a story from initial idea, through treatment and step outline, to a finished script for their final film with the help of our exceptional faculty. Story structure, theme, character, tension, and conflict will be explored as they are used in filmmaking.
NYFA’s summer camps for teens feature a no-nonsense approach to cameras, placing students behind a camera from day one. Students will learn to shoot using industry-standard HDSLR cameras. They will learn proper loading, operation, and maintenance of the camera. In the first week students will shoot and screen tests for focus, exposure, lens perspective, film latitude, slow/fast motion, and contrast. Any students needing extra instruction are given review sessions as necessary.
*Students in the 6-Week 16MM & HD Filmmaking Camp (LA only) will learn to use both digital and 16mm formats.
While the script provides the backbone of a production and cameras capture the action, it is the editing process that gives all that footage actual structure. Students will learn to edit their films with digital editing software. Their instructors will cover both the technical aspects of the editing process, as well as the conventions and theory behind editing choices and styles.
To direct actors, one must learn how to work with actors and receive instruction and experience in how to get effective performances from actors in their film projects. Students also get the chance to gain some experience as actors, providing them with important insight into what happens on the other side of the camera.
Our Online Film Directing Workshops are a hands-on, filmmaker experience designed to provide teens with the opportunity to explore storytelling through the art of film. This experience consists of three one-week modules. Students may enroll in all three modules or select to complete individual modules (students are not required to complete one module to attend the next).

Teens make potentially life-altering decisions every single day. Yet, most teens aren't ever given skills about how to make healthy decisions.

As a result, some teens struggle when they're faced with decisions like: Should I get a job? What should I say to a friend who offers me a cigarette? Should I ask someone out on a date? Is it OK to become sexually active?

Good decision-making skills can set your teen up for success later in life . Additionally, good decision-making skills help teens manage their stress levels better.

The key to helping your teen make the best decisions involves providing plenty of guidance, without overdoing it. 1 Be willing to give input when necessary, but don't be afraid to step back and let your teen make mistakes.

Sometimes, natural consequences can provide valuable life lessons. Just make sure that you're there for your teen when they fail. Help them learn from their mistakes and discuss how to make a better choice in the future.

Sometimes, teens ignore problems or blame other people for them. A teen may say they're failing math because their teacher doesn't explain the assignments. Or, they may avoid doing their homework because they're too anxious to face the pile of work they've been avoiding .

So sometimes, it's important to help your teen spell out the problem. 2 Hold a conversation with your teen and gain your teen's input by asking questions like, "What do you think is going on here?"

Encourage your teen to identify their options. 3 Often, teens think there are only one or two solutions to a problem . But with some time and encouragement, they can usually come up with a long list of creative solutions. Suggest that they list as many as they can, writing down their options so they can review them.

Challenge your teen to identify as many choices as possible, even if they seem like a bad idea.

Once your teen has a list of options, tell them to identify the potential pros and cons of each one. Writing down the pros and cons will help them see which option could be the best choice. 4

Talk about how emotions can play a big role in decisions. Fear may prevent them from trying something new while excitement may cause them to underestimate risk.

Writing down the pros and cons of several options can help teens tackle a problem with logic, rather than basing their decision on emotion alone.

Ask your teen to identify which choice seems like the best one. Offer input and guidance as necessary, but try to encourage your teen to make the decision on their own.

Make sure your teen knows that there isn't always a bad choice. Choosing between two good colleges will have pros and cons but both options may be good ones. So, while it may be stressful to choose, it could be a good problem to have.

Once your teen reviews the pros and cons of their options, talk about how to move forward. 4 Identify what steps they can take next. Also, talk about how to evaluate their choice. It's important to examine whether it was helpful or whether they made a mistake. Examining whether their choice was effective can help them learn and assist them in making even better decisions in the future.

Friendship —that close connection with another person which allows us to feel valued and cared for—is vital at any stage of life. The need for love and belonging has long been established as one of our basic needs as human beings. And it has been well documented that having strong, healthy relationships improves our self-esteem and overall well-being . As valuable as these connections are, however, they do not always come easily or naturally, particularly for adolescents.
We’ve all known the charismatic, outgoing teenager who is friends with everyone and approaches social situations with ease and grace. We’ve also known the awkward, insecure teenager who struggles to connect with people and becomes more withdrawn with each friendship that crashes and burns. While some of it has to do with personality and development, it is just as important to remember that just like so many aspects of adolescent development, making friends is a skill that can be learned.
If it seems like it was easier for your child to make friends when they were young, you’re right. When kids are little, most of their friendships are cultivated and managed by adults. Parents set up “play dates,” organize the activities, and manage any conflict that pops up. Parents also plan birthdays and other parties, and manage the invitations, gifts, and RSVPs to make sure everyone is included.
The good news is making friends boils down to a series of skills that can be learned.
As kids become teens, these friendships start to shift and evolve. As is true with so many things about middle school, teens become more independent and start making choices for themselves, so it makes sense they also become more independent in managing their friendships. Some kids handle this transition effortlessly, while others struggle mightily with making and keeping friends. And those friendship struggles can lead to a lack of confidence and feeling disconnected and vulnerable at a crucial time in their development.
The good news is making friends boils down to a series of skills that can be learned. And as with any new skill, becoming proficient at friendship requires some self-awareness, some guidance, and practice. Here are some tips for helping your teen improve their friendship skills:
Friendships during the teen years can be so important and fulfilling. Having someone to lean on, share secrets with, and let loose with makes life better at any age. If your teen is struggling with friendships, remember that it is not a lost cause. Make sure your connection with them is strong, and guide them toward the skills they need to make the kinds of friends that will serve them well.

I am so thankful that over the years my daughter has made and maintained some really close friendships. Now she has had some run ins with some bad ones too, don’t get me wrong, but for the most part she has a great group of core friends and I can say right now that I see these girls mostly staying friends for a number of years. It is just so easy these days, much easier than we had it, what with technology and social media. I guess there really is no reason to lose touch with someone unless you are purposely wanting to do so.
Not to be mean, but your comment is out of place here. I searched on this to find help for my teen who is struggling for friends and one of the first comments I see is you saying that you are so fortunate that your teen doesn’t have this issue and it’
