How do I get a program to air on Channel 15?

How do I reserve the studio and equipment for my use?
Customers may use the Cable Studio and equipment to produce programs. Requests for use are granted on a first-come, first-served non-discriminatory basis. Customers may only use Cable Studio equipment if they have completed training on the equipment they intend to use. Only the Cable Studio Manager may schedule studio resources, authorize the check-out/use of equipment, and authorize individuals to operate studio equipment.

How do I schedule my training?
The Cable Studio meet at least two weeks prior to the start date of any production (and four weeks prior to an air date) to identify training needs. A training schedule and sign-up sheet will be posted on the Cable Studio door and advertised on Channel 15. Training may also be scheduled by appointment.

Who must approve my show before I can air it on Channel 15?
The Cable Studio Manager must view each program prior to it airing on Channel 15 to:
1. Check the technical quality of the program to make sure both video and audio can be reproduced successfully for cablecast using studio equipment.
2. Verify that the submitted program matches the program proposal.
3. Verify that the program does not violate federal indecency, obscenity, or copyright laws.

Note: The Cable Studio Manager may not exercise editorial control over the content of any product that complies with the above laws.
