Wordpath

Channel 20 in Norman, OK
Mondays 6.00pm and Wednesdays 7.00pm

IWS produces Wordpath, a weekly half-hour television show about Oklahoma Indian languages and the people who are teaching and preserving them. The show seeks to make the general public more aware of the importance of Indian languages and culture, to make language class information available to teachers and students, and to honor those who are teaching their languages. It has been running for about 13 years and we have produced 190 shows to date.

Wordpath tapes Thursdays from 7:30pm to 9:30pm in the Cox studio on OU campus (Forum Building).

No experience is required; but volunteers must be Norman residents age 18 or older, and must take a special one-night class at the studio to become qualified. These classes are held on the third Thursday of each month. This is an excellent opportunity to learn video skills at no cost and at your own pace. Opportunities are available in studio and remote camera work, sound, lighting, editing, computer graphics, and directing.

If you would like more information about the show, call producer Alice Anderton at (405) 447.6103 or e-mail wordpath@yahoo.com.

To sign up for the training class, call Jim Jones at Cox Communications, (405) 600.6941.
