ASB (Mobile) Workshop | Royce City, TX

Aug 21

A dozen students on the Royse City High School (TX) broadcast staff took part in an ASB Workshop in the Lone Star State July 26-27.

Dave Davis brought a condensed version of the ASB curriculum, and was met with an enthusiastic group of young broadcasters.

They got a lot done in just two days, including shooting and editing a one-minute, creative piece on the first day, and then going into the field to shoot and edit a news feature on day two.

Royse City adviser Steve Vaughan had his troops ready to work, and despite some typical equipment challenges, things went very smoothly.

Teams of four had three hours to shoot and edit a story built around a provided soundtrack. Emphasis was on having a beginning/middle/end to the final production.

Check out one of the one-minute assignments below.

Dave Davis

Dave Davis started a Broadcast Journalism class at Hillcrest High School in the fall of 1989. Since then, the school's student-produced show, "HTV Magazine," has become one of the nation's most-honored high school broadcasts.

In an effort to provide valuable, useful, hands-on instruction to broadcast teachers from across the nation, Davis founded ASB Workshop in the summer of 2000. Since then, the week-long workshop has provided training for hundreds of high school and middle school teachers from 47 states, plus Mexico, England, South Korea, and Japan.

In the spring of 2009 he was named the Springfield (MO) Public Schools Teacher of the Year. He lives in Springfield with wife Martha, and has two daughters who live and work in the area.
