“I learned how not to over-act or be obvious.  Now I know how to focus the camera.  I never knew that before.  Before we only made silly goofy movies.  Now I know how to tell a story in a movie.  I like it a lot better.”- Mason

 

“We loved loved loved the movies!! Thanks for an awesome experience!!”- Megan, parent
