About
Turn creativity into content - and ideas into polished videos.
In YouTube Creator Lab, campers learn what it really takes to create engaging video content - from planning and filming to editing and presentation. This camp focuses on creative storytelling, video production, and responsible content creation, not just posting videos online.
Throughout the week, students use a professional video-editing application to transform raw footage into polished videos. They learn how thoughtful editing choices - like titles, transitions, music, and effects - can dramatically improve the quality and impact of a video.
Campers also explore what makes content compelling and learn best practices around audience engagement, branding, and digital citizenship, helping them understand how creators grow channels responsibly and creatively.
What students will do:
Plan and storyboard video ideas
Edit videos using industry-standard tools
Add titles, transitions, music, and visual effects
Learn the basics of storytelling and audience engagement
Explore how creators grow channels and build an online presence
This camp is perfect for students who enjoy video, storytelling, creativity, and media production. Whether they dream of being a creator or simply want to build valuable digital skills, campers leave with confidence and a stronger understanding of how content is made.
Prerequisite: Basic computer and keyboarding skills
Ages: 10–15
YouTube Creator Lab pairs well with Game Design, Pixel Art, and other creative technology camps for students who love expressing ideas through digital media.
