Lights, camera, action! Movie buffs and film critics alike have a place in these clubs! Every week, clubs will meet to watch a short film, movie trailer, or movie clip. Then we will identify elements of film (such as genre and tone) used in them and identify the visual and audible clues that give them away.
VIP "Goody Bags" will be available each week for participants. Contact Tristyn at tparker@bcfls.org to schedule your pick up time.
Tweens and teens will meet separately, but both clubs' meetings will be held through Google Meet.
Please contact Tristyn at tparker@bcfls.org for more information.
