Description:

Can’t wait for Halloween? Create your own spooky movie at Light House! In this workshop, students will learn how to use makeup, costumes, and special effects to bring their favorite creepy creatures to life.

Over the course of the week, we’ll cover the basics of screenwriting, camerawork, and editing. Kids work in small groups to come up with their own stories featuring zombies, ghosts, witches, and monsters, then make them into thrilling films! At the end of the week, we'll watch the finished movies together on the big screen!

Take a look behind the scenes of the 2025 Halloween in July workshop!
