Summer Camps

Thomas Farm Films will be back in summer 2025 with 4 weeks of filmmaking camps for ages 5 to 18. Each week-long camp will result in a finished short film to be screened in the Thomas Farm Films Summer Films Festival.

Each group of student filmmakers will be guided by 1 Filmmaking Instructor and Production Assistants. Our staff is background checked and First-Aid/CPR Certified. Camps take place on a 35 acre organic farm in Aptos.
