The Mountain Lake PBS operates a Media Lab that is presently in hiatus.
When in operation, the Media Lab serves as a collaboration between with community partners and schools to develop educational programming. The Media Lab uses an action-learning style that allows for both youth led and youth involved television projects. Participants function as television professionals while working on a variety of programs. They learn camera techniques, non-linear editing, audio sweetening and graphic design in a hands-on production environment. The Media Lab also oversees individual educational and occupational plans for each participant.
FEATURES:
Unless a Death Occurs: Hazing Examined
An incisive documentary on the pervasiveness of hazing on America's high school and college campuses. The film traces the tragic steps of Walter Dean Jennings, a Plattsburgh State University freshman, who died of water intoxication. The documentary reflects the effort of an entire community to face deplorable facts and caution others against similar behaviors.
A Way from Home
A cautionary tale exploring the consequences of teen drug addiction. The dramatic feature was written, directed and shot with a crew of young adults at various locations throughout Plattsburgh. Members of the Media Lab acted in the film and assisted in post-production. This feature exemplifies the action- learning style of the Media Lab.
Young Voices: Out to be Heard
A teen focused and teen produced magazine format television show. Segments include interviews with Plattsburgh Mayor Dan Stewart, George Clinton of Parliament Funkadelic, who performs on the show's theme song.
Young Voices: Opinions and Politics
