Other youth programs offered at The New

School include four-week credit-bearing

summer intensive programs in filmmaking

and in acting.

The filmmaking intensive, Film, Art, Change:

Making Movies to Make a Difference, is open

to high school juniors and seniors interested

in exploring the history and practice of movie

making by studying 16mm filmmaking and

high-definition digital techniques and tools.

individual attention and mentoring.

from The New School’s School of Drama and

teaching artists active on the New York City

and skills through coaching, workshops, and

exercises in artistic engagement.

—Natalie Komissarova Filmmaking intensive alumna
