The Educational Television (ETV) Centre at the Technical Teachers' Training Institute (TTTI) in Chandigarh, India was set up in the 1980s to produce educational video programs with support from the various departments at the institute. However, in the 1990s, many of these departments began offering postgraduate programs and were no longer able to collaborate with the ETV Centre to produce video programs. This caused a set-back to the productive outputs of the Centre and staff at the Centre turned their focus to providing training in the area of video film production techniques. In 1998, they undertook to conduct a postgraduate certificate course in video film production techniques. This paper discusses how the ETV Centre staff were able to maximise the use of its already existing audio-visual equipment and facility to provide training in television production and simultaneously generate resources internally.
