Communication industries camp for Indigenous students
21 NOVEMBER 2014
Senior Indigenous students will attend the 2014 ABC Indigenous Career Links Camp at Charles Sturt University (CSU) in Bathurst from Tuesday 25 to Thursday 27 November. Approximately 15 students in Years 10 and 11 from high schools and central schools partnered with the Future Moves program will attend the three-day residential camp to stimulate their interest in university study linked to careers in film, television, theatre, and communications, in particular with the Australian Broadcasting Corporation (ABC). Mr Ben Morris, Program Coordinator with CSU Future Moves, said, "This exciting concept and partnership with the ABC will lead the students through the process of conceptualising, researching, writing, developing, producing and promoting media for film and television. It will give the students a taste of what university study and life is like, as well as connect, network and explore a future career model for working in the film, television, communications, and creative industries." Future Moves staff and volunteer undergraduate leaders will support and coordinate the activities for the students with the CSU School of Communication and Creative Industries during the three days.
