In partnership with North Bay Regional Center, SCOE hosted Inclusion Films’ summer film camp. Founded by veteran filmmaker Joey Travolta, Inclusion Films’ short film camps teach teens and young adults with developmental disabilities the principles of filmmaking. The program encourages communication, confidence, collaboration, and independence through acting and digital filmmaking. To celebrate the success of our young filmmakers, SCOE hosted a red-carpet film premiere at the Vacaville Performing Arts Theater. The day started with a kickoff breakfast and live broadcasts from Good Day Sacramento. Donors provided hair, makeup, and gowns or tuxedos for students, and limousine buses brought students to the red carpet, where 500 family and friends were waiting to cheer their entrance. The much-anticipated film, The Bizarre Zone, played on the theater screen. The film featured all 58 students, behind the scenes footage, and the short films that the students created at camp. The evening was a magical experience for our young adults and their families. Moreover, film camp and the film premiere gave students an outlet for creativity, friendship, independence, and also recognized them as invaluable members of our Solano community.
