and technology, grapple with issues related to leadership
and production, and have access to a variety of computer courses.
You'll work in teams to cover assignments in the Tampa Bay
area using the latest equipment and software. Working together,
you'll present stories in a multimedia form, incorporating
audio and video editing.
The Visual Edge conference attendees

the three-day period. They will be able to observe the workings
of the digital workshop, attend lectures and presentations

three exciting evening presentations—"The Evening
With…,"and attend the new Technology Expo in the
