Underground TV
2000 - 2006
TV format started in the year 2000 by the students of secondary schools of Turin and its Province, within video-training courses held by Zenit Arti Audiovisive.
Underground TV is a creative project integrating media education, practical training for the students making their videos and airing of these products through a local TV broadcaster. The aim is to create a TV made by students for students and in the meanwhile teach them a critical way of consuming TV , aware of communication processes and strategies.
Between 2000 and 2006 Undergound TV was performed for five times.
The project Undergound TV involved approximately 20 schools, 40 classes and 600 students, building a community of young people able to experiment the production of a new kind of TV, closer to their needs and reality rather than to stereotypes and consumer models.
The project has been done by Zenit Arti Audiovisive in collaboration with the Province of Turin, CESEDI, the City of Turin – Youth Department.
The Underground TV episodes were aired on RAI3 (Screensaver), Quartarete, Videogruppo.
