A: BCAT cablecasts only in the borough of Brooklyn on two cable systems: Time Warner Cable channels 34, 35, 56 and 57 and Cablevision channels 67, 68, 69 and 70. Q: How can I have a program on BCAT? A: There are two ways to air a show on BCAT: you can either produce a show using your own equipment and submit a finished tape ready for cablecast or be trained in tv production at BCAT and use their state-of-the-art facilities. All programs must either have a producer who is a Brooklyn resident or be sponsored by a Brooklyn resident or organization. The pro- gram sponsor accepts liability for the content of the program. A valid ID and proof of residency must be submitted in order to submit a program. Programs must be accompanied by a com- pleted BCAT Playback Application/Renewal Form, available online at www.bcat.tv or from the BCAT Program Department. If you are interested in using the BCAT facilities to produce programs, in addition to being a Brooklyn resident, you’ll need to become a BCAT Certified Producer. The process begins at a 2-hour orientation ses- sion, held from 6pm-8pm on the first Tuesday of the month on a first-come, first-served basis. At the end of the orientation, you will have the opportunity to register for either the Remote or Studio Production Workshop. You must successfully complete one of those workshops in order to receive certification from BCAT. The cost of each workshop is $90; upon completion of the workshop usage of the BCAT Media Center is free of charge! Q: How soon will my program air on BCAT? A: BCAT changes its cablecast schedule every three months for all weekly and monthly series. To be considered for the fall program quarter (October-December), all sponsors must submit programs and a completed BCAT Playback Application/Renewal Form by July 29. New weekly series must submit four (4) installments with the form; all new monthly programs must submit one (1) installment. BCAT also accepts “specials,” a one-time cablecast of your program. These can be sub- mitted anytime throughout the quarter. Q: How long can programs be? A: All series and specials programs must be 28 minutes in length. Q: What videotape formats are acceptable? A: BCAT only accepts S-VHS, BetaSP, DV, MiniDV, DVCAM, and DVCPRO. Q: Where can I get more information?

On the produc- tion side, she is especially effusive in her praise for, and gratitude to, her director, Gasner Pierre- Christin, and her cameraman, Kerly Charles, both of Gus Productions and smart, seasoned veterans. Having had no prior experience working in television, Jarvelle admits that she was full of trepida- tion. “But then I thought to myself, ‘All right, so you’re scared, but you also have to do this show.’ You have to write it and you have to make it happen because there just has to be a show about the [Caribbean and Haitian] commu- nity so we can talk about certain things so many of us tend not to want to discuss.” For example: Having been a suc- cessful working woman in Haiti, Returning to New York in 2000, by January 2003 she devised a new way to put Haiti front and center: She created The Jarvelle Show, “the first and,” she says, “only English and Creole television talk show” devoted to the Caribbean commu- nity, whether expatriates or resi- dents, which can be seen weekly on Brooklyn Community Access Television (BCAT). “I grew up here,” explains Jarvelle, as she likes to be known on her show, “so when I moved [back] to Haiti, the way we think, the whole way they think—how we react, how emotional we are— really made an impression on me and very often I thought, ‘My God, we need work!’ Then one day back in New York I was watching TV— Oprah, actually— and I thought to myself: ‘There you go!’ After all, if you feel you have a need to get into everyone’s house to talk about the communi- ty and what is going on, as I do, a television program is really the way to do it.” Whether taped before a live audience, in the studio, or in the comfortable surroundings at her home, the spectrum of topics covered on The Jarvelle Show is both impressive and exhaustive. Subjects range from hard-news elements (business, health, educa- tion, and immigration issues) to lighter fare, including sports and arts and culture. This permits her Jarvelle’s Caribbean Crusade By Leonard Jacobs B orn in Port-au-Prince and raised in Brooklyn, Maria Jarvelle Gaston has long, strong emotional ties to her homeland. Indeed, despite a surging career in American business—doing marketing for J.C. Penney—she returned to Haiti in 1988 for a dozen years, serving as marketing director for various endeavors and becoming, in the process, an enormously successful woman in a land still struggling for economic, political, and sexual equality. society’s treatment of her gender is a particular concern to her. “Part of the problem is how women are treated, but another is that women accept that treatment. We never question things—it’s the way our parents raised us. “Which is to say that, overall, we have a way of blaming people for whatever the problem is,” she went on. “Let’s say we almost fall because we hit our foot on a rock. Instead of removing the rock so no one else can hit their foot, we ask, ‘Who put the rock there?’” By extolling the idea of self-empower- ment, Jarvelle says, Haiti’s myriad social and economic problems might at last be meaningfully addressed. The show has inspired her to expand her own skill sets: she begins classes this week at BCAT’s Media Center to learn how to use a video camera and edit her own footage. “I would like to be the Oprah of my community,” she concludes. “I want us to get better, bigger, stronger—and I know we can do it.” ––––––––––––––––––––––––––– The Jarvelle Show can be seen on BCAT Saturdays at 2:30pm on Time Warner Cable chan- nel 56, Cablevision channel 69, and streaming live online at www.bcat.tv/bcat.
