Juneau Live! Studio Showrunner Camp

The Showrunner Camp is a one-week immersion program in television production for middle and high school students. Participants (“crew”) learn the skills needed to broadcast a live two-hour music concert, recorded in front of a studio audience. During the five day camp, the crew receive instruction from industry professionals and practice those skills is a working studio (making a live, public broadcast each day). crew members become their own production company which, by week’s end, self-sufficiently produces (with on-screen credit) an episode of Juneau Live! Studio’s most popular series (10,000+ views), Alaska Music One Presents with at least four major, local bands, in front of a studio audience. Contact producer@juneaulive.org or 808-782-5795.
BTW, it’s not really a camp to learn how to be a “showrunner.” “The Showrunner is the person who has overall creative authority and management responsibility for a television program. “the vision of the show as a whole does not come from the freelance or even the staff writer, but from the showrunner,” from Wikipedia. UCLA Extension offers a Showrunners Boot Camp Course, which specifically teaches how to be a showrunner. However, showrunning will be discussed and “showrunners” are a hot topic / buzzword in the biz these days. Thus, “Showrunner Camp” made for a catchy program name (and the URL was available!).
