SUMMER WEEKLONG DAY CAMPS

OUR FOCUS IS ON FUN, making friends and learning TV acting and audition skills.  We serve youngsters by improving communication and audition skills, confidence and school presentations.  Open to all skill levels; this training is designed by award winning educators. A non-competitive nurturing atmosphere is provided as students develop their creativity. Previous training is not required. Success Stories: speech contest winners and the star of Disney’s, GOOD LUCK CHARLIE and more.

A TYPICAL CAMP WEEK! Speech and physical warm-ups start off each day followed by rehearsals and improv. Small classes ensure individual attention. (10-14 students per age group) Ratio: one coach and one intern per group. Each activity builds on the other which leads the students toward achieving goals. Lunch and outdoor breaks ensure comfort. • Short scripts are mailed one week before camp. On Monday introductions are performed on-camera. Rehearsals and improv continue Tuesday and Wednesday.

Feedback from Campers

Kids on Camera TV Acting summer day camps rock! Your camp gets an A+ in my book.I loved the improv, fun scripts and creating characters. The teachers really care. They helped me become aware of my abilities and made me feel comfy on camera. I learned a lot about myself from the video feedback. I take my camp DVD everywhere to show friends.
Keely Batmale, Larkspur, 7th Grade, Hall Middle School

Have you ever imagined seeing yourself on T.V.?  Do parents ever tell you to be quiet while you belt out your favorite songs in the shower?  If so, Kids on Camera is the right camp for you.  Kids on Camera is a fun and exciting camp run by Judy Berlin in which you spend half of your time on camera.  What you do on camera depends on the session you sign up for. It ranges from film acting to comedy, to character commercials w/costumes and improv. When you’re not spending time on camera you are working on becoming a better actor.  You will have a blast doing tongue twisters, improvisation and acting games. The second day, you get your picture taken by a real professional photographer. This is a great opportunity to practice being a model. I recommend this camp for boys and girls who would like to try acting on camera.  This is a really fun camp and I give it four stars!
Kyra Fleischman, Marin, Hall Middle School, 6th Grade

There’s no competition, just fun at Kids on Camera. The scripts and improv are cool. Everyone makes you feel so at ease and comfortable. No one laughs at you, only with you.
