(Malibu, CA) – The Malibu Youth Commission celebrates the talent of aspiring young film makers in the community with the Malibu Teen Film Festival January 9, 2015, and a series of free film-making workshops starting this month.
The Film Festival and the free film-making workshops are open to all students in grades 6-12 who are interested in film making.
