Commercial spot done for Kraft Foods by Lopez Negrete in Houston, TX. Just one of the many media companies studenst will tour around the state!

It's that time of year again and we're kicking off the Industry Tour Series in Austin, Houston, San Antonio and Dallas, TX. High school age students ages 15 - 19 are eligible to attend free tours and workshops in their respective markets. Tour attendees must be registered members of Media Xperiments and those under 18 must have a community adviser such as a teacher, parent or mentor that is responsible for transporting them to and from tours. Tours will include audio and video studios, advertising agencies, video game companies, radio and tv stations, interactive firms and a variety of other media related firms. For more info visit www.MediaXperiments.com or email Carl Settles.

Students that attend 2 or more tours are eligible to submit portfolios in the Show Your Reel 2010 Portfolio Contest and compete for scholarships, gear and other special prizes. The best of these students will also be invited to apply for our new paid summer internship program AdYouth. Students will work side by side with media pros to provide promotions and media services to small businesses and non-profits in their communities.

Tours run from the last week of January through February. Visit the Media Xperiments <a href="http://www.mediaxperiments.com/events">event page often as we'll be adding many more tours over the next 2 weeks.
