Special Announcement - The local Government Access TV channel

"Special Announcement -

The local Government Access TV channel (Ch 16 on Comcast, Ch 42 on Knology) has extended a generous offer to the Film Co-op. They will provide an opportunity to show some of your short films as part of a special 1 or 2 hour broadcast program. The films must be 20 minutes or less and be the equivalent of a G or PG rating (no curse words, no nudity or implied sex or violence) and can contain no political messages or images. If you had a film accepted into the Rocket City Short Film Festival in the "Family" category, please let us know if you'd like to take advantage of this opportunity. Members with other or newer short films, please contact us as soon as possible. Quality of the images, sound and editing will be important criteria for selection. The authors (director or producer) may also include a very short intro before their film. The city maintains a music license that covers broadcast of your film locally. Don Tingle will be working out the details (format, length, potential broadcast dates, etc.) starting next week. If this first attempt is successful, we may have additional opportunities in the near future. Please contact: Don Tingle, Film Co-op workshop coordinator, at 256-837-4359 (leave a message) or e-mail at DonJTingle@aol.com by December 20."
