CMCM Updates

We are thrilled and honored to collaborate with Lido Cantarutti, Director of the Italian Film Festival taking place in the Showcase Theatre in San Rafael, California from September 24 through November 5.

As part of the collaboration with the Italian Film Festival, the Community Media Center of Marin created promotional videos for selected screenings that will be transmitted in Lido’s hometown network television Telefriuli as well as Marin TV.

Learn more about the festival and reserve tickets for these great films before they're sold out.

Due to the COVID-19 Shelter in Place order, CMCM's Marin Earth Day event, scheduled for Wednesday, April 22 from 2 - 9 PM, is now tentative.

Please check back for updates. Thank you for supporting CMCM -- and Mother Earth. May we all stay safe and well.

To our Novato Friends, welcome to Marin TV. In the coming days you will see your channels on Comcast and AT&T migrate from the NCTV channels to the Marin TV channels. We hope you will find them to your liking. You will discover a wider array of new programming both local, national and international. Our schedules are posted on this site as well as access to the live web streams.

For members of NCTV, we have grandfathered your memberships to CMCM for one year starting July 1. If you were certified in field camera we will honor that with a brief tutorial on the use of our cameras which will be different. Editing will be available via our edit lab for Final Cut Pro and Davinci Resolve. Later this summer the lab will be upgraded to M2 Macs. Use of our Main Studio and Podcast Studio will require taking the related courses as these facilities are likely quite different to what you were used to. For info on classes or membership matters, contact omid@marintv.org. If you do intend to activate your membership, we suggest you also review our member hand book here.
