The simplicity of operation will be an asset to amateur productions
lauds the merits of- local
productions find is...anxious to
see the public take advantage
of the • opportunity to get
programs on the air that, they
want to'see and are of local in-
terest.
"Local programming has
always been a'part of the initial
plan of the company," Mr.
Davey said, "We want to get,
the people out here, show them
what there is, show them the
potential and the rewards of
local programming and select a
coinniitteeThi co-ordinate and
be responsible for the program-
ming."
.Naturally the turnout at the
Meeting next week' will dictate.,
th ze of the committee and
the',type of projects that they
will be able to undertake. The
' facilities have heen'bought and
will now be turned over to the
citizens. The only foreseeable
obstacle is getting the interest
aroused and the program off
the ground,
• The Blu.ewater Company has
spent close to $15,000 to equip
the studio for use in the hope
that local • residents , would
'recognize the need for and
realize the benefits of a com-
munity, television 'effort.,
The studio is now .equipped
with two catneras with zoom
lenses, proper lighting .for
production,- a video tape
machine which will afford the
convenience of produCtion at
any hour and -a console. The
console -is able to monitor three
cameras and features a swit7
cher-fader which enables the
operator to switch to another
camera shot or fade into
another angle and such special
effects as a split screen and cort
tier insertions.
Unfortunately programming
will ,be confined to the, studio
area . but there will 'be no
restrictions • or censorship
placed on the type of programs
aii'ed. The public will simply he
free to program its own ideas.
o "We don't want the people to
he perfect or attempt to com-
pete with the CBC,''. Mr. Davey
safd. "PeOPle • .ruin programs
when they try ' for perfection.
These will he amateur produc-
tioni:s and people, willhave to
learn to he themselves."
Mr. Davey has long been in-
volved with' the productions of
local programs with the cable
