Workshop Overview
We at Waterloo Community Television believe in placing
the means of media production in your hands. We welcome all genres of
shows: talk shows, news forums, debates, education, religious, short films,
sports, or comedy. So here's your chance to stop complaining about
television and to start making it!
In order to produce a program using our equipment, you
must be certified. This can be done very
easily. Sign up for one or more of our workshops and we will take you
through all the steps necessary to get familiar with our equipment and to
produce your own program. All training is hands-on. It's fun, it's easy, and no prior
experience with video or television is necessary!

Cost: $20 per person
This workshop introduces you to the basics of a video camera, tripod,

necessary.
