Transformers movie starts today - Get ideas for your own Transformers Movie in our newest COMPUTER EXPLORERS class starting in the fall!


"Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen" starts at movie theaters today! Go see the movie and get some ideas for our newest COMPUTER EXPLORERS moviemaking class starting in the fall:

"Lights, Camera, Action – Making Your Own Transformers™ movie

Bring Bumblebee and Optimus Prime to life as they take on Megatron or Star Scream in your very own Transformers™ movie. You will create your very own Transformers™ movie using special digital movie making cameras and software. As writers, directors and producers you will work in teams to create your own story and script, design and create backgrounds and film your own movie using graphic editing techniques and stop motion animation. You can add your own voices or your favorite music to your movie and show it at a private screening on the last day of class. All students will get a copy of their movie on a CD-ROM after class is complete."


This class will be available at various Park Districts in the Fall. Check back with us in August for class locations and dates!
