Rowan
Television Network
Established
in 1993, the Rowan Television Network (RTN) celebrates its 10th
anniversary this year. The station, formerly known as Channel 5,
delivers 24 hours of continuous programming via closed-circuit television.
Run entirely by students, RTN features a variety of programs catering
to a diverse audience. Covering campus events, celebrating cultural
history months and creating original programming, RTN strives to
promote unity and awareness.
RTN offers students the opportunity to produce, direct or star in
their own TV programs. With a $130,000 grant from the Student Government
Association, Rowan students work with broadcast quality equipment
including DVC-pro and AVID.
Rowan viewers
can tune into sporting and local events, student-produced television
shows, student-produced films and syndicated programming provided
by the Burly Bear Network. RTN progresses in its professionalism
and extended coverage with its experienced crew and access to advanced
technology.
One of RTN's newest programs, appealing to music lovers across campus,
includes The Pit. It will feature live performances from upcoming
bands as well as music videos not found on major networks such as
MTV or VH1.
Another show, entitled On Patrol, follows public safety officials
around campus as they do their part to keep the university safe.
Along with this year's new programming, RTN will continue broadcasting
old favorites. Up All Night with Kurt Magnum, a spicy late-night-entertain
show, changes its look this season. A new set adds a different flair
to the show's format.
Meetings take place Tuesday evenings at 7 P.M. in room 49, Bozorth
Hall (Open to all majors). Live video production occurs on Tuesday
and Thursday evenings in the Bozorth Studios. Contact RTN at 256-4632
or visit its web site at RTNCH5.tv.
Cinema
Workshop
Cinema Workshop
has been Rowan University's student filmmaking club for over 25
years. Cinema Workshop offers students the opportunity to
work on film, video and multimedia projects outside the classroom
experience. Students take skills learned in production classes
and apply them to creative work either more personal or larger in
scope than what is possible within the confines of a 15 week
course of study. After a peer-oriented pitch and approval
process, Cinema Workshop provides grants in the form of goods
and services through post-production, culminating in a year-end
screening of often award-winning films and videos. In addition to
production, Cinema Workshop actively promotes cinema studies by
organizing screenings of old and new Hollywood movies, foreign films,
and independent cinema. These screenings are not exclusively for
the benefit of Cinema Workshop members, but for the entire student
body .Cinema Workshop also provides a link to former members, many
of whom are working professionals in the field of film and video
production.
Cinema Workshop is co-advised by Dr. Joseph Bierman and Mr. Sean
O'Leary.
