The South Central Broadcasting Society regional conference will be at West Texas A&M University Oct. 6-7. The conference is for students from four-year universities but Dr. Emily Kinsey from WTAMU has made arrangements for area high school students to attend the Saturday keynote and breakout sessions for $10 per person. The topics planned for that Saturday’s panels include news/reporting, sports reporting/anchoring, film/documentary making, social media, starting your own media business, the music business, a drone workshop, and virtual reality.
The keynote will be at 9 a.m. Saturday followed by panels at 10 and 11 (they’ll have several topics to pick from during each time slot), lunch at noon, another panel at 1.
