Kids can learn movie-making techniques using something they have with them all the time, their cell phones. Filmmaker Katie Torpey is going to teach the class, which will help students learn script writing, directing, editing, the basics of working with equipment and lots more.
The Ridgefield Playhouse is located at 80 East Ridge, in Ridgefield. All year they feature lots of great shows and some of the best touring talent, but this educational experience could be a once in a lifetime opportunity for young film buffs.
