Merit Badge Day - Movie Making

Bring stories to life while earning the Moviemaking Merit Badge! Join us from 9:00 AM to 4:00 PM at PARC for a full day of creativity, hands-on learning, and advancement.
Scouts will explore the art and science of filmmaking, learning how movies are planned, produced, and shared with audiences. Participants will discover the roles of writers, directors, cinematographers, editors, and actors while gaining insight into the many careers involved in the film industry.
Through hands-on activities and group discussions, Scouts will learn the fundamentals of storytelling, script development, camera techniques, lighting, sound, and editing. They will also examine how filmmakers use visual and audio elements to communicate ideas and create engaging experiences for viewers.
