Celebrating 25 Years
Summer 2026 Update
It is with a heavy heart that we share this news. Summer 2026 programs at The Movie Institute have been cancelled. The Shops at Willow Bend is closing, and our team will be fully occupied with the work of carefully dismantling, inventorying, and vacating our professional production facility by June 30, 2026.
We are actively searching for a new home and updates will be shared here as they develop.
Not your typical summer camp
Why spend the summer sitting at home watching movies when you could be out making your own? Our innovative moviemaking camp is WEEK-LONG, FULL-DAY camp, designed with a hands-on, real-world approach to training in acting and movie production.
Create your own short films
Your work on the big screen
We wrap the week with an exclusive, Hollywood-style, red carpet screening, award ceremony and graduation event at Studio Movie Grill. Grab some popcorn and get ready to bask in your creation as it illuminates the silver screen.
