[quote=Anonymous]Can anyone share their child’s experience with the Duke Ellington CAMP (Cinema and Media) program? I’ve got a very bright rising 8th grader considering the program. He is very creative, very into movies, and a suprisingly astute cultural critic (I know that sounds weird to say about a 13 year old, and yes I am biased). The feedback he gets from teachers is along the lines of “very smart, very funny, unique, deep thinker.” He’s not that into the production side of things but could learn, but that would probably never be his strength. His dream career would be something like SNL writer - more realistically I can see him in marketing or the business side of movies or TV. But all that said he is a typical 13 year old in terms of drive and focus and not a prodigy who stays up all night writing scripts … Does CAMP sound like a good fit? What is an average day/week/year? What are the other kids like? Thanks! [/quote]
