Reaching Out to Members

FCCAC has created a Facebook Members Forum for members to be able to discuss their programs and ideas with each other. We know it takes more than one person to produce a program and finding help can be difficult, but don't let it stop you! The forum is a great place to recruit your fellow members to join you on a shoot or to ask questions about issues you're facing. There is likely to be another member who has faced a similar issue and can help you through it. So please join the Facebook Members Forum today.

Put Your Show On YouTube

FCCAC manages a YouTube channel dedicated solely to the Public Access Programs on FCC-TV. We encourage you to take advantage of the channel and post your productions online, but we do not automatically publish program online. If you wish to have your programs on YouTube you may email us at info@fallschurchcableaccess.org and we will create a Playlist just for your show within the Falls Church Public Access TV channel and add you as a contributor so that you can upload your program directly. In the email please include the title of your production, as it will be the title of the playlist, and the email address associated with your YouTube account.
​
Always check the Recommended upload encoding settings for your video before you upload it to YouTube.
