and i t a ir s ever y Sunda y on KVCR Channel 24
By Manny Sandoval
n Spring 2022, San Bernardino Valley College students enrolled in the Film, Television, and Media Department's Survey of TV Studio and Film Production (FTVM 133) and TV Studio Production (FTVM 233) courses produced a 6-episode TV show called Rhythm Lounge, which premiered on KVCR (channel 24) on Sunday, January 8th.
The format follows that of the iconic shows Guitar Center Sessions and MTV Unplugged, whereas Rhythm
Lounge spotlights the top musical talent from across the inland empire.
"This production was great for our students as it gave them a real-world TV production experience that added to their portfolio while at the same time creating original content for KVCR, marketing the Film, Television and Media department, and spotlighting local artists at the same time," said Professor Kevin Lyons. The first episode featured Classic Rock Band Raincross TV Show, cont. on next pg.
