PRODUCE COMMUNITY TV SHOWS

The Media Center is a place to fulfill your dreams, have creative fun, or just get your message out to the community. You can borrow cameras and record an event. You can tape interviews and visuals to edit a documentary. You can create a studio show with pre-produced, edited clips. And so much more listed on the Production Types page.

We have digital cameras, digital editing systems, a beautiful studio and control room to make available for your projects at nominal, subsidized rates.

This section details the process and provides the forms you need to get underway. There is no experience necessary. We’ll teach you what you need to know.

We expect that your production will be non-commercial and will air on the community cable channels; that you live or work in our service area (Palo Alto, East Palo Alto, Menlo Park, Atherton, & Stanford); that you will take classes or demonstrate your competence with the equipment; and that you will treat the equipment well.

Get started by attending an Orientation Class. If you can’t make it, call for an appointment.

 

"The Media Center has been such an amazing place to learn the ropes of media production. The staff has always been so supportive of me and my ideas, from experimental performance to social justice to music, poetry and dance. It is such an incredible feeling to make shows that I believe in, and to do so with nice people who are skilled at what they do and want to help me make a professional product. ”
