The "dog" days are coming.....
Submitted by joricostello on Mon, 07/20/2009 - 15:14.So come cool off at the CAT! We have a FREE first come first served internet workstation complete with scanner and printer (5 cents a page), digital production classes and other tidbits of movie making that you might want to check out. Like learning how to upload your videos to You Tube for instance. So if you've ever made a video in your life, please bring it on down to CAT to air on the channel. That would be FREE as well! And do you have any of those old home movies still on VHS and you're scared to play them too much because your old VHS player might eat them?
