It’s February, which means our first-year Television & Video Production students are in the midst of commercial productions!
The projects begin at this time in the spring every year and are designed to take the foundation skills that students learn in courses teaching planning productions, camera, lighting, editing and writing, and apply them in team projects.
The first set of commercials that the student production companies are working on this term:
- BC Transplant Society
- Commercial Drive Midwives
- Nike 6.0 Shoes
- Press Start Video Games
- Muscular Sclerosis Society Canada
- Frank’s Red Hot
- What8ver Cafe
- BCIT SIFE

Thanks to all of our students and staff who volunteered their Saturday to help produce the live streaming event for the FIRST Lego League BC Championships on Saturday, January 14th.
This is the second year running where the Television & Video Production students have provided a live stream of the event for friends and family to enjoy! This year we had viewers as far away as Europe watching the competition.
Be sure to check out our photo gallery of the event! You can also check out the complete event coverage on Justin.tv.
We have more live projects coming up in the near future, so subscribe to our RSS feed, or follow our Twitter account, @bcittv to be notified of our new productions!

If the live video stream is fails, please try reloading this page.
You may receive pop-up advertising while watching this stream – it’s an unfortunate side effect of using a free video streaming service.
We are currently looking into alternatives that can provide an advertising-free viewing experience.

Jinder Chalmers, creator of “Combat Hospital” (as well as BCIT Alumni & writing instructor) spent some time with our students this afternoon, answering questions and giving advice on getting a major international TV series off the ground, and the production process necessary to make it successful.

Ms. Chalmers offered an insightful look at the realities of multi-million dollar productions and shared her experiences on the series to an audience students from the Broadcast Department. Information on finding funding sources as well as making the industry connections necessary for success were great discussion topics!
