Nantucketers are natural story-tellers, are they not?  Perhaps  you have something on your mind that you want to share? How about making people laugh? How about making them think!   Filmmaking is a powerful tool – yes we all know that.  But, it’s also the MOST collaborative art forms in the twenty first century (actually – dates back to 1890, check our blog for more that).  One can specialize in and become part of film production team to produce some legendary grassroots films that is unique to Nantucket! Here a brief idea of roles we are talking about: writer, producer, designer, actor, director, lighting engineer, camera and audio technician, imagining specialist, and editor.  Sure you can try your hand at wearing all these hat and see what gets you pumped.  Either way, NCTV is here to help make that happen.

As part of our mission for Nantucket, we continue to Broadcast Nantucket.  We can’t do it without you.  Remember it’s your Vision, Voice, Life on this Grey Lady. Here is a PERFECT opportunity to make a film or sponsor this cherished event!!!
