NOTE: These instructions are for people with a finished program to submit. If you need information about training, equipment or services to make a program see How to Create a Program.

Paperwork

All programs to be shown need to be submitted using a paper CABLECAST REQUEST FORM. A new cablecast request must be completed every quarter to ensure that your show continues to air. The main reason behind this is that we need current records of the release of liability. Sorry, we hate paperwork to, but that is the way it is.

Program Submission Format

You may submit programs on:

1. DVD
2. MiniDV
3. DVCAM
4. VHS (to be phased out)

IMPORTANT: Only 1 episode per DVD or Tape! If you are submitting 3 episodes, make 3 DVDs or submit 3 tapes.

Program Labeling

Label the DVD or Tape with the following information. Improper labeling is the #1 reason that programs are delayed or mis-scheduled. Labeling is your responsibility. Do not make our volunteer staff guess.

1. Program Name – Do not abbreviate or assume that every person who checks the mail knows what VWS means.
2. Episode Name, Number or Both
3. Your Name
4. Program Exact Length (HH:MM:SS)
5. Optional: Specific date or week you would like the program shown. We will do our best.

Program Delivery

You may hand deliver programs to FVTV during open hours or send them by mail. See the calendar section for open hours.

Program Return

If you want your DVD or tape back after it has been encoded, you must pick it up at the station during open hours. In order to keep fees as low as possible, we do not return programs by mail.

Time to Schedule

Although we are often times able to get a new program airing quickly, we do not promise anything faster than 3 weeks from the time we receive your program to the time it begins airing. The scheduling and encoding is a highly manual process and we rely on volunteer talent to get the work done. Sometimes it happens quickly, but please do not be upset if it takes the full 3 weeks.

Acceptable Program Lengths

We greatly prefer programs that are 15, 30, 60, 90 or 120 minutes long. We will accept any length of program. Odd length programs (e.g. 34:23) run the risk of not getting any of their requested time slots as we need to group odd length programs together in dedicated blocks. Programs over 12 minutes are charged the full rate and will be listed on the program schedule. Programs under 12 minutes have a reduced rate and will be shown opportunistically where space is available.

Acceptable Program Content

Any content that complies with the statements below can be submitted to FVTV Channel 11. You as the program producer or sponsor assume all liability for any inaccurate, offensive or copywrited content when you sign the cablecast submission form. Read the Full Producer Statement below especially Section F which pertains to commercial content. we understand that there is a lot of gray area between educational, entertainment and commercial content. Use your judgment. Ask yourself, “If my mother was watching this program would she feel a) entertained, b) educated and informed or c) sold to?”
