Skateboard Films

Build your custom board and film!

Get ready to shred like the pros, bringing adventure, fun, and the outdoors together for this unique CK favorite, Skateboard Films! Campers start the week off designing their very own skateboard decks: learning design concepts, and painting techniques for this fun and unique medium. Working with real tools, they’ll add trucks, wheels and custom griptape. They’ll learn the basics on safety and keeping their boards tuned in tip-top shape! Next, our resident Ck professional skater shows campers how to ride safely, as well as a few tricks. We welcome both beginners as well more advanced skaters, During filming, we utilize dolly’s, shoulder mounts, GoPros, and 4k cameras, to capture the action. Campers will get to visit and skate at various NYC skateparks, then head back to CK Headquarters to add music and edit their footage. By the end of this week-long camp, Skaters will walk away with their very own custom built skateboard that they get to keep, and an action packed skate video to share with friends.

**Please note a full set of safety gear must be supplied by the family for each child attending camp.  No child can skate without this safety gear supplied.

The Week Campers Will:

• Design their very own custom deck to take home
• Learn to build and tune their skateboard
• Learn to skate if they are a beginning, OR gain some new skills for the more experienced skater
• Utilize various cameras, and practice complex cinematography techniques to capture awesome footage
• Head outdoor each day to skate
• Plan, act in film, and edit a skate video

Ages: 7 - 13 (grouped by age)

**Taking this theme multiple times builds both filmic and skate skills!
