UCreate Media Camp is a summer camp put on by UAA’s department of Journalism and Public Communications in collaboration with Alaska Teen Media Institute. From June 5 to June 9, campers learn about audio, video and image production in addition to story telling and graphic design. The camp is being hosted by the College of Arts and Sciences at UAA.
UAA’s student newspaper, The Northern Light, is assisting in running the camp and hosting projects that campers make. You can see what the campers have come up with here.
I am Travis Vannatter. I am going into 8th grade and moving to Kentucky about 3 months into summer. I currently live in anchorage Alaska and is doing a media summer camp right now writing this. My favorite sport is lacrosse. I play goalie and attack in lacrosse. It is really big in Kentucky so I am excited to move there because I am going to play a lot of lacrosse. I also like playing basketball and was on the JV team for my school. I live in the mountains and have 3 pets. A dog named Brody, a cat named otter, and a bunny named Sasuke. I go to Gruening Middle School and our mascot is a colt. I play a trombone which is a band instrument. And I want to play a saxophone, which I might learn to do this summer. My birthday is on June 28 so pretty close and I am going to celebrate by playing paintball with my friends.
