After School Opportunities for Youth at PhillyCAM Youth Programs at PhillyCAM To support and embrace youth voices we created PhillyCAM’s Tech Lounge. The Tech Lounge is an open creative laboratory that brings together the youth of Philadelphia to make and share media that promotes creative expression, forward thinking and community participation. The Tech Lounge benefits young people and by extension the larger Philadelphia community by providing much needed quality after-school activities, job training, and internship opportunities. We offer instruction on basic storytelling, scriptwriting, video production and media literacy. Our students learn to access, analyze, create and share digital media content with thoughtfulness and social responsibility. Activity Opportunities We offer after school media-making activities, special production workshops and internship opportunities year round. • Our after school activities are offered once a week, allowing students to explore different media tools, genres and techniques. • We also have a special production workshop that is a multi-week, registration required, hands-on training opportunity for students to learn specific skills in a project-based environment. • We do provide non-paid internships for High School students 3 times each year by application.
