Shorts by Kids
The Short by Kids project instantly transforms your pupils into filmmakers.
What is Shorts by Kids?
The Shorts by Kids workshop lets pupils in group 7 (10-11 years) and group 8 (11-12 years) at IMC primary schools create their own short film. They discover every step in the filmmaking process under the expert supervision of professionals. The final result? Their very own cinema premiere!
From script to screen
The project enables pupils to develop scenarios, get in front of and behind the camera, and explore the fascinating world of special effects and montage. As a stunning end to the project, they and their classmates get to watch their own films on the big screen at a local cinema.
Fun, educational, individual
This project gives children lots of new knowledge about various professions in the film industry while letting them develop their own creative skills. Cinekid works together with IMC to focus on the children’s personal development – boosting their confidence, kindling their passion for filmmaking, and broadening their horizons.
Who’s it for?
This workshop is jointly organized by Cinekid and its partners. For the time being, the workshop is only open to participants who have been invited by these partners.
Win the Short by Kids Award!
After the workshop, the films will be screened at Cinekid Festival during the autumn holiday. A professional jury will hand an award to the best young filmmakers, who will get to accept the Cinekid Shorts by Kids Award in person!
