What is Public Access Television? The place where
residents, and people who work in town, bring in tapes and air them on Madison's
TV Channels (18, 19, & 20).
How
does it work? Come in and learn how to use a camera, and sign one out for a show you would like to produce. Or if you already have a tape, sign it up for airplay.
We can also schedule training in editing tapes for airing.
