Film Camp jcfilms-presents

If you’re ages 12 – 17 and have an interest in faith and family films, then these Summer Camps are for you!

Each year, JCFilms Studios hosts two weeks of film camp that allows young people to experience all aspects of Christin filmmaking while being in an actual film. This wonderful summertime experience allows every camper to be cast in the film projects.

During a JCFilms Film Camp, teens are given the opportunity to spend time working directly with film professionals to help advance their film goals while making a Christian film. These weeklong experiences not only offer an exciting hands-on approach to filmmaking, but each camper gets a role in the film!

The FIRST FILM project is entitled, YOUTH GROUP THE FILM and will be produced June 14 – 21, 2025. This character driven multi-plot film depicts the tremendous pressure young people face in this increasingly unavoidable secular culture. The film goes beyond simple Wednesday night small groups and Sunday morning worship to a movement of engaging young people on their turf.

The SECOND FILM project is entitled, YOUTH GROUP THE MUSICAL and will be produced June 21 – 28, 2025. When the youth group from Rosewood Baptist Church decide to put on a Christian musical production at their high school they are immediately met with opposition. Through prayer and creativity, they use their imagination to produce an amazing musical with remarkable Kingdom results.

Sound exciting? In addition, both YOUTH GROUP productions will star actor Dean Cain. So, whether you’re an aspiring actor, creative writer, or an ambitious young filmmaker this camp is for you!
