This is a great opportunity for anybody who's ever been interested in television production.  Start working on Free Minds TV and then you might get inspired after you gain enough experience to do your own program!

[Tom Sawyer]

Yeah they have some nice equipment that is free to use and they need good freedom oriented programming.

Local to what town?

I wouldn't mind helping out as a camera operator as I actually did run a camera back in high school and college for an AV group.  They did rock concerts, plays, events (the woman's "fashion" show was my fav  ) and political events.  We even had a remote control camera we would hang off balconies or over walls to get shots were people couldn't stand.  I worked the sound board too but I hated doing that.  You would think after my years of playing in bands that I would enjoy the sound board but I don't.

Local to what town?

Keene.


I don't know anything about audio, but I could help with the other shit.
My only problem is that I work on Saturdays once a month.

[Rifkinn]

I sure wish I was close enough to help out doing/learning some of that.

What they need now is a studio that doesn't lose power in the middle of a show. 

[BrennaFMTV]

Lauren,

Thank you so much for helping out last night on the show!  You did a great job and we really appreciate your help.  We're glad to have you as part of the team, and we look forward to seeing you next week!

If you are interested we could work something out. Lauren has the audio covered, but there is plenty more to do.

public access tv?  never heard of such a thing... jk..
the community I currently live in doesn't even have a basic website (i'm hoping to change that at least)
Toby, you guys really need to keep it going so when I can get out to NH I can help out...
