Day 1 of Digital Creatives Camp is complete - what an awesome start to the week!

Todayโ€™s focus was Music Production ๐ŸŽต๐ŸŽง

First the kids used Beepbox to create their own original tracks and music.
Then they brought it to life through film and animation. Some filmed, acted, and starred in their own mini movies, while others created short animated videos - then combined their music and visuals into their final creations!

Tomorrowโ€™s focus is Digital Art and Animation ๐ŸŽจ There are still a few spots left, book here: https://www.thearray.gg/events-programs/digital-creatives-school-holiday-camp
