West Side Filmworks provides specialized instruction in filmmaking for students ages 16 through 19. Classes cover all aspects of production, from writing and editing, to color correction and DVD mastering.

Our small summer workshops focus on documentary filmmaking. Every project we complete has a venue. Whether it's film school entrance committees or international festivals, students gain experience targeting specific, real-world goals.

Work alongside Academy Award winning producers and directors to create professional, focused content for use in reels and college applications. All courses use cutting-edge equipment, including quad-core Xeon Mac Pros and Panasonic DVX100B camcorders.
