I do not recommend this camp because the teachers are very strict, there is limited free time or relaxing time on devices, they make you do too much work. One time I saw a review that a boy was on an educational website after finishing his video, and a teacher yelled at him and made him do more work on videos when he already finished his assignment. I think that is very shocking based on how much work they have put on their videos, and they can't get a break. Also, for "recess" you would think they would let the kids go outside and get some fresh air after being on an iPad for so long, but they make them go to another indoor room and quietly eat lunch. Overall, this camp was not something we would do again, and I don't think you should sign up.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We take all reviews seriously, as they help us evaluate our programs and ensure we are providing the best possible experience for our families.
We would like to address a few of the points you raised:
Classroom Expectations: While we do not necessarily push our teachers to be strict, we are deeply committed to teaching our students actual, tangible skills. To do that effectively, maintaining class order is essential.
The Review You Mentioned: We are not aware of the other review you referenced. However, our policy is that if a student is not on task, our instructors will step in to get them back on track.
Breaks and Routine: What you described regarding recess does not sound like our camp. We intentionally schedule two designated breaks throughout the day. Both of these breaks are completely screen-free, and our team works hard to ensure they are active, engaging, and fun for the kids after their structured learning time.
We are sorry to hear that your experience didn't align with your expectations, but we appreciate you bringing your concerns to our attention. If you would like to discuss this further, please feel free to reach out to our management team directly.

Canceled 2 days before camp started…
Canceled 2 days before camp started leaving me with no backup options and struggling to find a new camp. Would not trust again.

Hi Alex,
We are incredibly sorry for the late cancellation and the stress this caused you. We know how difficult it is to scramble for backup childcare, especially right before the week begins.
Our standard policy is to monitor enrollment closely and endeavor to notify parents at least a week in advance if a camp cancellation must occur. Falling short of that timeline for your family is absolutely not the experience we want to provide.
We truly apologize for putting you in a tough spot, and we are using this feedback with our team to ensure we handle our enrollment notifications much better moving forward.

No project supervision ..
Hollywood Filmmaker was not at all what we expected.
Parents should know that much of the filmmaking process appears to be left entirely up to the kids, with very little adult oversight. Last year, my 8-year-old nephew attended, and what he described was concerning. According to him, the older children voted down his ideas because he was younger, then created a film where students chased each other through a school with a pencil pretending it was a knife.
What was most surprising was that this project was filmed at a church in Alamo Heights, San Antonio, yet there seemed to be no review or approval process for the content being created. The final video reportedly included special effects showing blood throughout school hallways, which I found completely inappropriate for a children's program.
Their mother contacted the organization and sent the video the kids made afterward and was assured that changes would be made to prevent something similar from happening again. While leadership did provide a formal apology that seemed sincere, it’s unfortunate that the experience was not a good one. You would think a new offer or discount would available to make it better and a memorable experience.
Beyond the content concerns, the overall customer experience was disappointing. The staff did not seem particularly welcoming or enthusiastic. Based on the promotional materials, I expected an energetic and encouraging environment, but that was not our experience. Not at all like the ads on TV. I hope the kids watching them have a background check and I truly hope there is stronger management oversight this year, both in supervising the projects and creating a more positive atmosphere for families. Customer experience matters just as much as the activity itself.
My sister did not have time to pursue the issue further, but I wanted to share our experience so other parents can make informed decisions. My advice: ask questions at drop-off about how projects are supervised, what content guidelines are in place, and how final videos are reviewed before being shown.

Thank you for taking the time to share this detailed feedback. Since this review references an experience from last year, we appreciate the opportunity to share how our program has evolved and the specific measures we have in place for this season.
We take the safety, supervision, and overall experience of our campers very seriously. Here is how we are addressing the concerns you raised:
Location and Supervision: We have moved our program out of the church location and are now operating in a school facility. We can assure you that students are supervised by our staff at all times throughout the day, from drop-off to pick-up.
Creative Freedom vs. Content Guidelines: While we do not condone the specific themes of the video made by that group last year, our philosophy is to give students the creative freedom to explore filmmaking ideas they are passionate about. That being said, we took the feedback from last summer to heart. This year, we have implemented stronger management oversight and clearer content boundaries to ensure that while kids have creative control, projects remain safe, inclusive, and appropriate for all age levels. We also work hard to ensure younger students' voices are valued in group settings.
Customer Experience: We pride ourselves on creating an energetic, welcoming, and encouraging environment, and we are deeply sorry that our onsite team did not reflect that during your nephew's session. We have redoubled our training efforts this year to ensure our staff brings the enthusiasm and positive atmosphere that families expect from our program.
Staff Screenings: To give you peace of mind regarding the team supervising the campers, we do require background checks for our staff to ensure a safe environment for everyone.
We are glad our leadership team was able to connect with your sister last year to offer a sincere apology and commit to these changes. We truly implore your family to see how we have improved and upgraded our program for this year.
If you or your sister would like to discuss the specific adjustments we've made to our curriculum and supervision guidelines this season, we welcome you to reach out to us directly.
