The Digital Media Academy offers separate courses for kids, age 9-13 (at all its campus locations), called Digital Media Adventures. Like DMA's teen courses, the hallmark of Adventures is its superior instructors. Other summer computer camps, by necessity, hire young people barely out of high school as instructors. At Digital Media Adventures, we have a more sophisticated approach. Our master instructors have a level of expertise you simply will not find at other computer camps. They are real-world industry professionals, working in the fields of 3D animation, video production and game design who also have a passion for teaching kids. Our instructors are older, have more experience, are more professional, and are paid more than those at other computer camps...and it shows. With a typical instructor-to-staff ratio of 5 to 1, kids get lots of attention. Choose from the following weekly sessions:
Adventures in Robotics
Adventures in Filmmaking & Effects
Adventures in Game Design
Adventures in 3D Game Design Extreme
Adventures in Web Design & Flash
Kids typically stay 2 or more weeks, combining topics for a more rounded experience or taking the same course a second or third time to explore more advanced techniques. Kids staying on campus are housed separately from teens, grouped by gender and age, and supervised by our dedicated Adventures live-in adult counselors.
A Well Rounded Experience for Your Child
At Digital Media Adventures, we strike a balance between in-class learning and out-of-doors fun. We recognize that kids need to move! We take breaks for recreation in the morning and afternoon that may include soccer, ultimate Frisbee, volleyball, basketball, scavenger hunts and other crazy outdoor games. Evenings and weekends are packed with more organized outdoor activities with weekend trips to amusement parks, Lazer Tag facilities, video arcades and more. And of course, our adult supervisors ensure a fun and safe time for everyone!
