Movie Maker Merit Badge at the Microsoft Store at Woodfield Mall

Please arrive at least 10 minutes before the start of the workshop. Late arrivals may not be accommodated and refunds will not be provided. Pre-registration is required. Walk-ins will not be accepted.
All merit badge workshops are three hours in length on the dates indicated. Upon fulfilling the requirements, the Counselor will sign the BSA Blue Card and award the Scouts a Microsoft store patch. During their workshop, Scouts will have a period of free time so they can enjoy a hands-on experience with the newest technology found in the store. Scouts must bring a Blue Card signed by their Troop Leader. Please have your Scout bring a flash drive to the workshop to save his work.
Each Scout should complete and bring the following prerequisites to the workshop:
Research three different career opportunities in movie making. Pick one and answer these questions: a. How do you prepare for this career? b. What is the education required for this career? c. What is the training required for this career?
Moviemaking Merit Badge
Moviemaking includes the fundamentals of producing motion pictures, including the use of effective light, accurate focus, careful composition (or arrangement), and appropriate camera movement to tell stories. In earning the badge, Scouts will also learn to develop a story and describe other pre- and post-production processes necessary for making a quality motion picture.
All Youth Must Be Accompanied By An Adult. Adults are welcome to use the computers and other technology in the store, or make an appointment with the help desk, during the workshop.
