Video Content Creation
[edit]In 2020, Theresa created the most popular and highly rated American Girl online camp for children during the pandemic using the Outschool platform. 645 elementary school students made original short films under her guidance and debuted them at a virtual red-carpet premiere celebration. As part of the curriculum that she created, she published My Doll Journal and Filmmaking Notebook, which guided children through the filmmaking process.
Since her daughters were homeschooling and virtual schooling during that time, they went through her curriculum multiple times. She received Thanks credits on the films that they wrote, directed, edited, and acted in because of her constructive feedback during classtime.
