What a pleasure to have the incredibly talented actor and director, @nestorcarbonell, visit our Broadcast Studios! From The Dark Knight and Bates Motel to The Morning Show and Lost, Carbonell’s career has included so many iconic roles! 🎥

Leading the tour was none other than our very own Broadcast Journalism Professor, @antoniomora39, a longtime friend of Carbonell. 🤩 We were thrilled to showcase our state-of-the-art @um_tv facilities that provide students with cutting-edge hardware and software.

Professors from the Journalism and Media Managemen

Professors from the Journalism and Media Management and @umcinarts departments teamed up to teach nine local high school students for The Wolfson High School Workshop in Podcast Storytelling and Journalism. 🎧🎙

From a tour of @wvum905 with the General Manager, to learning how to construct a story, conduct interviews, and use recording equipment, the students worked in groups to produce their very own podcast episodes. 🙌

Their episode topics include influencers and content creation, how athletes deal with stress, and the effects of social media. 💡
