Zoom In Videomakers

Zoom In Videomakers is a collaborative group of volunteer videographers who are jazzed about local community access to the media. Our venue sponsor is the Midpeninsula Community Media Center in Palo Alto, California. They cablecast five (5) local channels on Comcast and U-verse and stream live from their website.

The Media Center is actively looking for local video content to program on their channels and streams. One of this group's goals is to create just such local content about local people, organizations, events, concerns and news. Video field production and editing workshops are provided at low cost by the Media Center to help enthusiasts get started; equipment is available to borrow free or at low rates as part of those programs.

Group projects and local videotaping opportunities are plentiful, and are posted on this meetup site bulletin board. We host occasional special lectures from guest-experts.

You can also check out our some past work on the Zoom In Youtube Channel.
