Producers are responsible for purchasing their own DVC-PRO digital videotape.  Producers should always bring at least two (2) DVC-PRO tapes and blank DVD's or VHS tapes whenever they come into the studio to shoot or edit their programs. 
 
Once you have completed registration on both sides, you are ready for Pre-Production Planning. 
 
To start planning, go to the Pre-Production page.

CHANNEL USE

Provided by Bowie Community Media Corp.

Bowie residents must pay a $100 annual user fee.  Non-Bowie residents must pay a $150 annual user fee for channel 77.  Please make checks payable to "BCMC."
 
Producers are responsible for purchasing their own DVC-PRO digital videotape from a vendor or from BCMC. 

BCMC has made its sign-up form and DVC-Pro merchandise available at City Hall, in the studio, for your convenience.  If you're not going to be a producer, you can still be a member of BCMC.
 
BCMC's forms are also available at:
