Distribution and Social Media Marketing
WCM not only can produce top quality digital media that conveys your message, WCM can help you get your message seen and heard through harnessing social media like facebook, twitter and myspace. WCM can work with you to meld social media marketing with your existing advertising and outreach approaches.

Teaching
WCM provides community-based educational services to students of all ages in the Wyoming and beyond. Teaching may be on an individual basis or for groups. WCM works closely with local school districts, colleges and universities to develop “hands-on” practical out-of-school learning opportunities in all facets of production, behind and in front of the camera. Student teams produce programs for community TV channels and web streaming. WCM has taught for Wind River Tribal College, Laramie County Community College, Carbon County Higher Education.

Wyoming Creative MediaPlex
WCM plans to establish the Wyoming Creative Media-Plex as a part of the Hynds Capitol Core project. The MediaPlex will consist of a home for the creative community education programs it has been developing over the past few years in Cheyenne.

WCM taught the first Laramie County Community College off-campus life-long learning classes in the Hynds Building in 2010.

WCM’s sister organization, Boulder Community Media (BCM) managed 4,000 sq ft in the Boulder Creative Media-Plex located a half-block off the Pearl Street Mall in Downtown Boulder, Colorado.

The Boulder MediaPlex was a creative environment in which BCM conducted its community education sessions about video production, storytelling, for students of all ages.

The Wyoming Creative MediaPlex is planned to include offices for other resident producers, editors; a production space, screening room / meeting /classroom for teaching, networking and collaboration. WCM programs include experiential learning through “hands-on” use of equipment, writing stories and seeing their work on the screen.
