There is a great demand, locally and
nationally, for people who can operate a
broadcast television camera. People are also
needed to write scripts, direct television
programs and edit videotapes.
Fifteen years ago, careers in television
production existed almost solely in the realm
of network broadcasting. But the market has
been completely redefined through the
emergence of high technology at low costs
and the escalating number of cable television
channels.
Production companies provide videotaping
services for clients varying from major
corporations to newlyweds. Special interest
groups have found a niche on cable television
where there are more than 100 channels
waiting for programming.
Students graduating from CCC’s Television
Production program are qualified for an entry-
level post in any of these environments.
