Cupertino's 'Better Part' Shows Off KMVT's New Digital Ability

The local access television station, Channel 15, gave the public a look at its new capability, thanks to the cities of Cupertino and Los Altos, and volunteers.

Cupertino's award-winning 'The Better Part' crew hosted a live production of its program during KMVT's open house Wednesday evening, at its studios.

KMVT Channel 15 is Cupertino's public access channel, and is located at 1400 Terra Bella Avenue in Mountain View. It also serves Los Altos and Mountain View. 

Last year, KMVT began its digital capital campaign “Go Digital,” and the open house was the celebration of the initial success of that campaign, and a chance for some of the station's stakeholders to get a look. 

"With the great help KMVT volunteers, the City of Cupertino and the City of Los Altos, going digital has become possible," said Shelley Wolfe, executive director of KMVT. 

"This is an open house to give you a first hand, up close look at the beginning of our new capabilities and resources available to YOU the local community."

Staff answered questions, and visitors watched the production of "The Better Part," about the senior life in Cupertino. The award-winning show produced by members of the Cupertino Senior Center covers "a wide range of subjects of interest to seniors as well as to the general public ...  including information, entertainment, humor and a lighter side living," according to the show description.

Residents can learn how to produce and host their own programs at KMVT. The station runs summer camps for local children to learn "Claymation" and studio production.
