Television Studio (SPSTV)

Award Winning Video Productions, Graphics & Animations

Seattle Public Schools Television (SPSTV) lifts District stories to external audiences through the creative use of video, animation, and graphics while adding transparency to government. SPSTV operates a full-service, state of the art high-definition TV studio, located on the 3rd floor of the John Stanford Center for Educational Excellence.

Resources include professional audio equipment, HD video cameras, broadcast control room, advanced lighting, studio complete with multiple video sets and a green screen, video recording and playback systems, remote technology for broadcast of live events hosted in SPS buildings, and production suites for graphic creation and video editing. We utilize the complete Adobe Suite.

We support students by delivering District information with them, sharing their scholastic stories, and also offering them exposure and experience to the media arts. We distribute our work via social and traditional media as well as support of our own distribution channels.

SPSTV was original established to broadcast the SPS Board Meetings through a franchise agreement with city of Seattle and local cable providers.

We also stream SPSTV 24/7 on YouTube.
