One of the goals of the Youth Media Lab is to teach media production skills to young people in the North Texas community. After all, if we are teaching kids that media around them are constructed for a purpose, shouldn't they be given the ability to create and share their own messages?
Now that they knew about media literacy, the residents from Cumberland understood that they can, and do, make media on a regular basis. Preparing them to advocate for themselves in our increasingly mediated society, the Youth Media Lab teaching fellows gave them an even more advanced skillset. Follow along as the teens go from making movie trailers in an iPad app to staffing a whole TV studio!
