From the Vault


Programming here at HCAM is produced by volunteer Access Producers and studio staff, usually shot in the or the studio and edited, or occasionally broadcast LIVE. Once aired, these shows are placed into the studio archives.  Over the past 15 years, your community access station has not only changed its look and name, but actually changed locations a few times. As these tapes were moved around, they were tossed into boxes and bins, stuck into dark attic storage spaces, and forgotten.

  

When Hopkinton Community Access & Media, Inc. took over the operations of your television station, we recognized the value inherent in these  programs from the past.  One of HCAM-TV’s objectives in our new studio space was to create an archive of past shows. While sorting the tapes and creating a new cataloging record, we thought it would be nice to give some old shows another run. From The Vault dusts off these tapes and breathes new life into what was thought to be lost.

 

We hope you enjoy watching these programs and maybe see some familiar faces. If you have any comments or suggestions of a show you would like to see again, we want to hear from you.
