"Your imagination is really the limit when it comes to film. I think that's what's so cool is that it's taking your dreams and it's making them a sort of reality," said Greenberg."
"Anyone can really make a movie if you've ever thought about it. It's not something that you have to dismiss as a pipe dream. It's something that's accessible to pretty much anyone with the most basic technology at their disposal," said Greenberg."
"This is actually a great class for people who have no film experience because we're learning about the very basic building blocks of how to make a movie. You don't need to know all the rules, you don't need to know all the technical stuff. You can make a movie by just, you know, going out there and you just need to know a few very basic things," said Greenberg."
"It's such a popular tourist destination. Just because that's part of our mission is to support local artists," she said."
