Girls in 6th, 7th and 8th grades are invited to explore the ME in media
More Info
Girls in 6th, 7th and 8th grades are invited to join!
Look for the ME in media and learn how you can shape media—for yourself, your community and the world.
Stories are told everywhere and in all kinds of formats – in movies by big Hollywood studios, online by bloggers and through social networks, through the clothes chosen by stylists for a fashion spread in a magazine, through the photos chosen by a newspaper editor. MEdia helps girls think about who is responsible for telling all the stories they see around them and how to use their story to help "re-make" the forms of media they see around them.
Have fun while learning about the media. Meet professionals who will share their career experience with you!
