Q: Can I rent your equipment?

A: No.  While some of our facilities do have a cost associated with them, our equipment is available only to members of our service area who have taken the necessary training.  Our in-house production team can offer you a quote to produce your program for you if you cannot take our training.

Q: Can I tape weddings with your equipment?

A: Yes you can tape weddings, however all use of our equipment must result in programming for our channels.  You cannot charge for the use of any TVCTV equipment or services nor can you use our equipment for any revenue generating activity.

Q: Who can use TVCTV equipment?

A: TVCTV services are available to persons who live, work, attend school or volunteer for a registered non-profit organization in the MACC service area.  If your eligibility is met by being a student, your eligibility expires when you are no longer a student.  If you are a volunteer for a non-profit, your activity is confined to programs supporting that non-profit agency.

Q: How many times does a program play on your channels?

A: We guarantee 5 airplays if your program meets our technical requirements.  Depending upon the type of program, repeat plays may exceed 20 replays during the quarterly cycle we schedule for our channels.

Q:  How many people will watch my program?

A:  We can't answer that one; but when your program plays on our home channels, there is a potential of a quarter million viewers having an opportunity to watch your show.  If your show is acceptable to play on our premiere channel, the Community Access Network, over a million potential viewers are yours to entertain or inform.

Q:  What do I have to do to get a show on TVCTV?

A: You must attend a free Orientation and then take classes for a small fee and attend a free Producer's Seminar or you can produce or sponsor a show without taking any classes but the Orientation and the Producer's Seminar.  You will have to team up with a trained TVCTV producer in order to get reservations for our facilities or equipment.
