"The internet is just a sandbox..."

"With so much content, how do you find quality?"

"It's just the internet, how does quality matter?"

"There is no specific audience on the web..."

As professors of television are seeing content overflow from the web, questions and statements like those above are also being spoken.

As we trace the origins of web television and compare the outlet of the internet broadcast television to that of traditional broadcast television, we are better able to teach our students about the co-existence and acceptance of the new platforms.

By following the many new models of web television, our students can grasp the idea of how to produce HIGH QUALITY content for the web.

My research was presented in Las Vegas this April at the Broadcast Education Association Convention at a panel titled "Teaching Television Production in the Age of YouTube." This will part of my Master's Thesis titled "Defending the Intellectual in Television and New Media" for my Master of Arts in Comparative Arts and Culture.

Please follow along with my research notes at my wordpress blog.
