PRODUCTIONS

Plans are underway to put together a plan of action with respect to developing a number of ideas around some production ideas that WCCTV has planned for the long term.

These productions will be centered around the preservation and promotion of our community's culture and heritage.  It will be about embracing and strengthening our language and customs and honoring our Elders.  Some of the ideas that have recently been discussed as well will focus on involving and incorporating the Youth of the community in video projects based on their interests.

WCCTV is also realistic that it needs to develop some programs that will be aimed at generating some much needed revenue for the CH.12 Network.  These production projects will involve working with other communities, government bodies and industry partners across the Atlantic Region for the benefit of promoting Aboriginal initiatives in various areas through our video productions intiatives.

Local projects are also important to us and from time to time we will be videotaping both live and on tape and then airing these video clips to the CH.12 audience from time to time.  Some of these events that are taped will be edited for a better viewing experience and postings of the times will be shown on our network.

Current Projects:

-"One Handshake at a Time"- A documentary that looks at the Mi'kmaq's role in the Sable Island Offshore Gas Industry.

-Baddeck & Area Tourism Association.  We have produced a DVD containing 34 commericals for the new Tourism Channnel in Baddeck. You can view the work of WCCTV on channel 35.

-A Contract with The Tarponds Clean up is also underway.
