Instructor Tom Riti notes that video has become a dominant force on the Internet. The abundant availability and nominal cost of TV broadcast quality equipment now makes it possible for anyone to run his own internet television network. Actors can showcase their talent. Business owners can promote their businesses. People dedicated to a cause can now attract a sympathetic and supportive audience that will change social policies.but viewers expect their TV to look a certain way even if it is on the Internet. Getting a friend to film you with his cell phone reeks of amateurism and reflects on you and the message you're conveying. In order to be truly effective, you need to know how television works.
