Volunteers:
Fair Lawn Television Productions, Inc. is always looking for dedicated volunteers to assist us in the production of television programs, live broadcasts and our community bulletin board.

Volunteers do not need any previous television experience and will be trained by FLTV Productions. Experience with a home video camera is helpful to new volunteers.

Volunteers are required to attend one meeting per month, participate in the production of at least one show and assist in the live broadcast of Borough Council meetings.

Tips for Taping:
Some of the tapes that we receive for airing are not suitable for display due to audio or video problems. Please try using some of these hints to make your videos more viewable.

1. Use a tripod. Shaky video makes people nauseous!
2. Make sure that your video is in focus!
3. If you are using the microphone on your camera, you should be within 5 feet of the subject to get good audio. Use a microphone where possible.
4. You can tape an opening title and ending credits by writing the credits on a dry erase board and filming them.
5. Turn off the date/time stamp.
