Lights, camera, inspire! The kids of the Lakewood Young Filmmakers Academy Summer Filmmaking Camp are ready for their close-up.

After two grueling weeks of writing, directing and editing their movie, they’ll get to walk the red carpet July 25 at the Capitol Theatre in Gordon Square.

For a third consecutive year, 40 aspiring filmmakers ages 8-17 have come together in the sweltering July heat to produce “The Lunch Bunch” a funny and touching tale of mystery with a little nod to the widely popular “Stranger Things”, Marvel Comics and 1940s film Noir all rolled into one.

The camp, which was held at Harding Middle School in Lakewood, is part of the Lakewood City Schools Department of Recreation and features mentors from such films as The Avengers, Captain America, Fate of the Furious, Made in Cleveland, Anhedonia and more.

With post-production completed, the kids will get dressed to the nines and walk the read carpet before a premiere in front of what we hope is a sold out house.

The event is open to the public and tickets ($10.50) are still available but are selling out fast. Please join us to support these future Spielbergs and to learn more about how your kids can get involved in the hottest kids filmmaking program in the region.
