COMMUNITY TELEVISION 'KEY TEXTS' VOLUME TWO
CAPITAL NEWS (1995) Supported by The Scotsman, Capital News was a
broadcasting project involving students from local universities and
colleges in setting up and running a local TV news studio. Held to
coincide with the Edinburgh International Television Festival, the
Government’s Department of National Heritage stopped the broadcast just
moments before it was due on air. The project continued - ‘broadcasting
to tape’ - providing evidence to help convince regulators that local
television offered a real alternative to regional television news.
TOUBIE JACK'S CHANNEL SIX SHOWREEL (2001-2002) On small budgets the
local TV services, Edinburgh Television and Channel Six Dundee
differentiated themselves very clearly in their short-form programming,
commercials, TV graphics and logos. Toubie Jack's showreel demonstrates
that high production values can be achieved from basic desktop
computers and software. e-tv ABERFELDY (2002-3) A field trial of a
low-cost licence-exempt neighbourhood TV technology which ran from
September 2002-October 2003. Here, King Alfreds College filmed
interviews and presentations from the Community TV Forum held in
Aberfeldy in September 2002.
