About the program
The Mobile Storytelling Studio is a high school digital storytelling summer program at Texas State University focused on media production, communication skills, and creative storytelling.
In this course in the Pre-College Summer Intensive Series, students gain hands-on experience in storytelling, media production workflow, and on-camera communication in a professional broadcase environment while building portfolio-ready work.
Is it the right fit?
This program is a good match if your student is curious about careers in television, sports media, video production, or digital journalism. No prior experience is required — just a smartphone and a willingness to get in front of (and behind) the camera.
Enrollment is capped at 15 students. Limited seats available.
Career-Ready Outcomes
Each student will complete the intensive with:
- Mobile-produced video story
- Studio-produced segment or podcast episode
- Portfolio-ready media artifact
(In-person, on campus)
