Go inside DCTV’s Summer Media Intensive (SMI) — a month-long, hands-on filmmaking program for teens. This short behind-the-scenes film captures the energy, creativity, and teamwork of our young filmmakers as they learn the art of documentary storytelling, from brainstorming and shooting to editing and premiering their work. Created to kick off our SMI screenings, it offers parents, friends, and future students a glimpse into what it’s like to be part of this unforgettable summer experience.
