WTCI-TV 45 launched a new online series Tuesday, Feb. 3, called “Greater Chattanooga,” a short film series that looks at “the people and ideas that make us all more aware, happier and stronger as a community,” according to a news release.
Each episode can be found at greaterchattanooga.org, with the first installment being a 5:43 minute piece on the first Chattanooga Mini Maker Faire held at First Tennessee Pavilion in October. It can also be watched on smartphones and tablets via YouTube and Facebook, and in HD using products like Apple TV and Roku by using the free PBS app.
The Mini Maker Faire showcased the “maker movement” which brings people with ideas big and small together. Some time later in the year, the short films will be collected into a half-hour show that will be broadcast on WTCI.
Subjects to be covered in the shorts will include arts and culture, business and news and public affairs.
