Melanie began her current position as the FSU TV3 Manager in the fall of 2000. She, with the support of the department, has implemented many changes of equipment and programming. Athletic events in the past were taped with a small single camera package for several years. The first upgrade of equipment was the purchase and use of a multi-camera equipment package for taping FSU sporting events, Frostburg City Council meetings, and numerous special events both on and off campus. Later, with financial assistance from Tele-Media Cable Company (now Comcast) and the City of Frostburg, TV3 was able to obtain additional equipment allowing for the upgrade from a manual router system to an automated system. The event list for TV3 productions
has grown to include panel discussions, concerts, fashion shows by local
student organizations, and the FSU Student Government Association meetings.
To serve the educational
needs of the local community, several educational series of programs
were added to the channel's lineup including three series from NASA:
Destination Tomorrow, SCI Files, and Connect. In
the fall 2006 semester, TV3 began programming a few series of shows
from Annenberg, an educational channel that provides an extraordinary
range of programming. As channel manager, some
of her duties include teaching a multi-camera production course. The
class provides coverage of FSU sports, FSU Student Government Association
Meetings, Frostburg City Council Meetings, and specialty programs. Melanie
also serves as a directed study and internship supervisor for students
interested in production, post-production, multi-meda designing and
other topics. Students under her direction produce a variety of productions
and post-production projects for the local campus community and for
FSU TV3. In her spare time she enjoys watching professional sports, reading, gardening, swimming, and cooking.
