Video Production: DIY Effects

Tech Arts for Girls

Fall 2026

Saturdays, October 3-24 (4 weeks)

10am – 1pm

Sliding scale fee: $0-$120 (No one turned away for lack of funds)

TAG is for girls+ (including nonbinary and trans students) in grades 6-9.

Join us to learn video production, and how to make your own DIY props and effects from ordinary materials like cardboard. From lighting to camera to sound, you’ll gain hands on experience with professional equipment. Then you’ll edit your work into an experimental short film!

We have developed a sliding scale fee system to ensure that the class is still affordable for everyone, so please choose the ticket that fits your budget (including $0). Let us know if you have any questions!

Ticket options for each four-week session are:
$0
$30 ($7.50 per week)
$60 ($15 per week)

$90 ($22.50 per week)

$120 ($30 per week)
