Ten THS media students set up the orange remote broadcasting bus along Hempstead Turnpike adjacent to Hofstra University’s “Free Speech Area” and across the street from the entrance from the arena where the third 2008 presidential debate took place. On the sidewalk, a small studio was set up and several of the students interviewed demonstrators and individuals representing a wide range of interests on all sides. The individual “on camera” interviews culminated in a panel discussion by our students. Meanwhile, all this was wirelessly remoted back to the THS library media center’s TV control room via a broadband network card located inside the broadcast bus, and this in turn was scan converted and broadcast on Channel 77 “live” in Tenafly and on the web at www.librarymedia.net ’s video gallery. At the Library Media Center, the feed was monitored and cell phone communication allowed for tweaking. Our THS students exemplified our program’s guiding principle: The best broadcasts must have respect and good will as their central purpose. You can see their work for yourself and share their experience clicking through this streaming media mms://151.198.212.3/Hofstra and / or visiting www.librarymedia.net and click on the video gallery link. The program can be found in the “THS-TV Productions” section.
