Simle Middle School Art Students Enjoy Tour of Dakota Media Access

Kim Eslinger brought her art students to Dakota Media Access for a tour this morning.  The student learned a little about DMA’s role in the Bismarck and Mandan communities.

Following the brief discussion and tour of our control room, it was off to the studio for a little “hands on” work.  The students set up two different sets.  The first was for our in-house program Art View.  The second was the set for Live United.  Both shows are produced at the Dakota Media Access studio and air on Community Acccess, cable channel 12 in the Bismarck and Mandan area.  You can find a list of programs and schedules at our website.

Each student had a chance to be a host/guest, camera operator and some even sat in the directors seat and called the shots.  The students commented on how much fun it was including “this was one of our best field trips ever”.  We enjoyed having them in the studio.

We would like to thank Kim and her students for their attention and participation in this mornings activities.  We hope to someday see some original programming coming in the door for us to run on the air!
