High school students can gain hands-on broadcasting and film experience this summer.
Northern Arizona University’s School of Communication is inviting students in grades nine through 12 to apply for its Indigenous Youth Media Workshop, scheduled for June 22 through July 1, 2026. Participants will receive full scholarships to attend the summer program, where they will have the opportunity to produce a newscast in the university's state-of-the-art, three-camera broadcast studio.
The comprehensive workshop aims to equip students with practical skills in digital filmmaking, scriptwriting, editing, audio, lighting, camera operation, animation, and video production. Eligible students can apply online by visiting the registration link (https://forms.office.com/r/LcJ8PyW4kz) or scanning the QR code featured on the event's promotional materials.
