WCTV’s Studio “A”, with the adjacent
 Control Room, makes up the heart of
 WCTV’s Production Facility.

   The studio allows members to team up
 and work on programs such as:
     -Panel discussions
     -Interviews with multiple guests
     -Call-in talk shows
     -Live events such as auctions,
      telethons, or membership drives
     -Public affairs/informational shows
 

  In addition, the studio provides space for
 training crew members, producers, hosts, and
 anyone else interested in learning about and
 working on live television productions. (It’s
 also a big hit when we offer our Scout Tours!)

   Programs produced in this studio can be
 cablecast live, or recorded onto tape and/or
 into our computer system for later playback.

   Our studio is equipped with three moveable
 cameras on wheeled tripod mounts.

   Overhead cameras are also available for use in establishing shots.

   The lighting grid can be used not only for
 the direct lighting for in-studio subjects, but
 also for special lighting effects through the use
 of such accessories as gels and “cookies”.
   Most of the lights on the grid can be
 converted to use as either a spot or a flood
 light, depending on how your lighting is set up.
 The flaps around the lights, known as “barn
 doors”, help control the flow of light and
 improve the look of your lighting and your
 program.
