♦ Create and direct an individual three-minute short film in addition to being part of a team filmmaking project.
♦ Acquire and apply knowledge in the areas of script development, directing, acting, dancing, set design and production, camera work, lighting and sound, and editing.
♦ Work side by side a team of professional artists, led by veteran filmmaker, Joey Travolta.

Who should apply:
• Those seeking to explore careers in filmmaking and technical theatre.
Those needing to participate in a vocational skills assessment process.
• Those desiring to transition into long-term arts-related vocational training programs.
Students seeking community service credit.

The Performing Arts Project will be held in downtown Bakersfield. Cost per participant is $1300. Some scholarships are available.
