Community Service Announcement Day - Friday July 5
The First Friday of every month, in the afternoon, MCTV sets up our studio for non profits and community groups* to make a short (from 30 seconds to 2 minutes long) video announcement in front of a green screen.
*Businesses can also make announcements on CSA day if having a free event -
*One of MCTV's main objectives is to serve as a communication resource for the community's organizations, and to that end we are interested creating other ways to let people know about events and activities. Please let us know if you think it would be effective if we did brief interviews - less than 5 minutes that would run every day for a 4 to 6 week period? There would be most likely one day a month that we would set up the studio for this type of show. An interview show might work well for describing courses for example. If this idea sounds interesting or you have other ideas for how we could use our equipment and skills to support the community, please contact us at [email protected] or call 961-1127

The MJune CSA Day is a good time to make an announcement for events happening between mid July to end of August.
Call 961-1127 after 2pm weekdays to make an appointment.
Before calling, please read below.
Costs:
Preparation for your appointment is essential. Each CSA appointment is 30 minutes long - enough time if you are prepared. . .
How to prepare for CSA- Please call before Friday if you have questions
What is your script: What do you want to say? It is best to keep short, practice saying it while timing it, shorter is usually better than long - 1 minute or less is optimal. We have a Teleprompter:
If you want to read on the teleprompter what you want to say, write script and save as a Word ("text") file and email to [email protected] or bring it in on a flash drive.
If you have questions about how to make a Text file, please call for help before Friday. The Script for the teleprompter - needs big type double spaced and only about 30 letters (5-6 words) per line. What picture or background do you want? See samples CSA's for ideas about what works for background. You are responsible to send or bring us digital files (video or stills) for backgrounds. Video files should not be more than 1mb . What contact info, and/or date of event do you want to be seen on screen?. Come with the information you want written out.
If you have not made a CSA with us before, check our samples of CSAs at http://www.mendocoasttv.org/VOD18#featured
If you have any questions, please call or send email to [email protected]. What to wear for CSA? It is a good idea to bring along a 2nd choice of clothing- tops only are seen generally.
