Profile: Dashan Calvert
Dashan Calvert
Is there a typical profile of a GRTV producer? Certainly not. But Dashawn Calvert's work does tell us a lot about one particular producer and the kind of effort it takes to put a series program on GRTV for months on end.
Spotlight: LiveWire
LiveWire is programmed by GRTV on cable channel 24. It airs community education, special programming such as Classic Arts Showcase, live cultural festivals, NASA science programming, candidate forums, and other professionally develop programs of particular civic interest.
Client Feedback
Girl Scout Troop 3325 would like to thank you for allowing us to film our cookie sale PSA at GRTV. The girls thought it was one of the best things we've done all year. Thank you for your flexibility in allowing the girls to develop their own script - and then for making it work. The staff at GRTV was helpful, professional, and great to work with. We really appreciate this opportunity.
Jenny Sias, Troop Leader, Girl Scout Troop 3325

Potato Moon concert at Wealthy Theatre
Posted: 08/22/2008
Like to take a minute to give my propers to the crew: tonight's "Potato Moon" concert (8/21) was the best-run Wealthy Theatre concert yet. End of sentence. CMC knocked this one out the park.
No doubt it's easier to look good when you've got that much talent onstage... "Potato moon" is amazing.
Big thanks to Ted for getting the lights and mics setup on Wednesday. Also, thanks to Jeff for the setup help, Brooke for running Tech Booth and switching video, Colleen for her amazing touch on lighting, Tom and Francesca for managing front of...
