Point TV

Point TV is a great way to get experience working in front of or behind the camera. This includes writing, producing, directing, shooting, and editing short films, news and interview programs, documentaries, commercials, sports broadcasts, reality shows, and short drama and comedy television programs. Unlike other university programs, Point TV allows you to start using the equipment, technology, and tools used by industry professionals right away. The studio has also produced award-winning student films and television shows that have been screened all over the country.

With so many opportunities for hands-on learning, you’ll have the chance to discover and cultivate the skills and passion that could lead you to a fun and fulfilling career path.

Watch the latest broadcasts and keep up with our student productions on YouTube, Facebook, and Vimeo.
