Deaf TV's Volunteerism

Deaf TV often send our camera operators to the activities in which the Deaf persons are to be involved in the community.  The active members of Deaf TV often spend their volunteer time on camera and computer in their week to week leisure although they are mostly in turns. Some institutes for the deaf are kind to provide us some moving images for our programs. 

About Us

Deaf TV is a non-profit local organisation which is based on the enthusiasm of Deaf volunteers in Melbourne. Deaf TV is primarily funded through member donations and sale of products. This volunteer organisation does not receive any regular Government or private funding.

Deaf TV screens programs on a local community television Melbourne C31 station every Monday at 6.30 p.m. and Thursday at 2.30 a.m until 31st May 2010. Resume in September 2010.

Also at Adelaide C31, every Monday 6.30 p.m (original), Thursday 2.30 p.m. (repeat) and Sunday 3.00 p.m until the end of June 2010. Resume in October 2010.

We often film the activities in the Deaf Community as many as we can. Some Deaf producers may make their own sequences and may submit theirs to us. We will have a look and edit them for our Deaf TV programs.

Channel 31's campaign for digital

 As C31 is not yet broadcasting digitally, the Federal Government is still requring a review to find a way to facilitate the digital signal. Many people are buying digital television that cannot signal C31's analog tranmission. It is believed that 40 percent of Melbourne TV sets are convented to digial only television. C31 had no choice but they launched its campaign to request for digital tranmission. Analogue will possibly be switched off in 2010-2012 and you may throw out your old non-digital TV sets in the street.

WIKIPEDIA: This is one of Deaf TV's logos which is appeared on C31 Melbourne in the Wikipedia website. The caption says, "Deaf TV, one of the diverse programs on Channel 31." Deaf TV is still mentioned in the Auslan article in the Wikipedia.
