Summer High School Programs in Czech Republic

Imagine filming scenes across Prague—its medieval bridges, Gothic towers, and winding alleyways becoming the backdrop for a story you’ve written and are now bringing to life. This is your summer to explore cinematography, script writing, and directing in Prague, where art has long been used to spark societal change, and filmmaking has never shied away from the strange. Through hands-on workshops and expert-led sessions, you’ll dive into the essentials of visual storytelling. Study films from Czech New Wave icons like Miloš Forman and Věra Chytilová, then storyboard, shoot, and edit your own five-minute scene with a small team of fellow Global Navigators. You'll present your production at a film festival-style event, sharing your work with peers, teachers, and local professionals. Outside the classroom, explore Prague and Czechia. Weekend excursions take you to Český Krumlov, a storybook town with Baroque theaters, and Kutná Hora’s medieval mines and eerie Bone Church. By the end of your summer, you’ll leave with new friendships, unforgettable memories, and a finished film scene that can launch your next step in the creative field.
