PRESS FOR DEMOCRACY IS A NEWSMAGAZINE VIA PUBLIC ACCESS ON TELEVISION
CHANNEL 56 and MANY OTHER STATIONS
PRESS FOR DEMOCRCY is an independently produced TV show that is be broadcast over Channel
56 in Pasadena, as well as other channels nationwide. Each one-half hour program will explores
various pressing issues through interviews in the studio, as well as footage
shot out in the community.
We often feature clips from progressive filmmakers who have made
documentaries about the specific issues we plan to cover -- i.e., Leave My
Child Alone, Media Reform, Election Reform, Social Security, Impeachment and Universal Health Care.
We are currently accepting short/feature film submissions for our upcoming
shows. We want to work with up-and-coming as well as established progressive
filmmakers. We hope to help like-minded filmmakers find their political
voice in an industry that is often dominated by big money and big media. Our
show will utilize clips from new films and may include interviews with the
filmmakers,
as well as others.
If you would like to submit your film, we will accept the following formats:
DVDs
Mini-dv tapes
VHS tapes
If your film is chosen, it will need to be available in one of the following
