TeenPact Media inspires and equips students to develop their God-given creative gifts and talents in a digital age. Our world needs leaders who have the character and skills to compellingly communicate God’s truth and beauty through media and other creative arts. Learn the art of storytelling, the principles of design, and the power of multimedia production.

 


 

Learn from media professionals and receive hands-on training and mentoring in plenary sessions and small group breakouts. Choose to participate in one of five tracks and work with students from the other tracks to form a Media Team. This team will work together to produce a cohesive messaging campaign for a client and will present a final project at the end of the week. Throughout the week, you will also learn from Biblical teaching about the nature and purpose of communications, the creative arts, and media. Join us for TeenPact Media!
