Each spring, as part of our mission to empower youth media producers and educators, TCYMN sponsors a Youth Media Summit where youth media producers from across the Twin Cities meet each other, learn more about media, and create original films in randomly selected teams. During the course of one day, youth at the Summit are put into groups, assigned a genre (such as documentary, narrative, or experimental), given a prop, and challenged to work together to create an original film from start to finish.
The 2012 TCYMN Youth Media Summit is scheduled to take place on May 12th at the Minneapolis Television Network on St. Anthony Main in Minneapolis. The application is now available for the Youth Media Summit! If you're a Twin Cities youth in high school or middle school, fill out our Application today online.
Check out videos and photos from the 2009 TCYMN Youth Media Summit. For more information, watch the 2009 TCYMN Youth Media Summit Documentary, which chronicles the whole process of filmmaking from start to finish.
The 2012 Youth Media Summit is supported by: Youthprise, Hampden Park Co-op, The Science Museum of Minnesota, Wuollet Bakery, Kowalski's and Dairy Queen.
