Feature Film Production
AJ Rickert-Epstein leads this workshop as he directs a feature action film in the Oxford area. Students will serve as the primary crew on the production, which will also involve professional actors and other filmmaking professionals in key positions.

The Rhetoric of Identity in Digital Spaces (Facebook and beyond)
This online workshop offers students a chance to explore what it means to craft and maintain a digital identity in a digital age. We’ll talk about how employers, instructors, peers and “strangers” see us in online space, mixing theory, individual research and practice to understand the underlying rhetoric of making oneself.

CraftWinter
The CraftWinter program is designed to strengthen creativity, develop personal expression and provide a sense of community among people interested in art, design and crafts. It is a chance to meet with others who have the same interest but who have different approaches in specific techniques and forms of expression.

Performance Essentials for Music Theatre  
This workshop is an introduction to performance essentials for music theatre, including movement, acting, and singing. The Music Theatre Intensive is an approved course for the Thematic Sequence in Music Theatre.
