How to Create and Submit a Bulletin to SCTV

Who may submit?  What content is eligible?

• Slides may be submitted by Town of Salisbury departments and committees or non-profit organizations in the area.

• Bulletin Board slides may highlight important government information or community-wide, non-commercial events. 

• Slides should not include prices or costs of admission, donations, entry fees, etc., even for non-profit events.

• Slides should be of specific interest to residents and viewers in the Salisbury area.

• The slides should refer to specific events or services, usually with an end date, not generic items such as office hours or organizational promotion.   Generally, slides will be terminated after 3 to 4 weeks.  

• Email (attach) qualified bulletins to  support@sctvmc.org.

What is the format for SCTV bulletin board slides?

• Slides should be either .jpg  image files or .png image with a 16:9 landscape aspect ratio.  Those are generally 1920 pixels wide by 1080 pixels high.

• SCTV's equipment will scale any 16:9 landscape .jpg  or .png image to the correct size needed.

• SCTV and most PEG access channels still actually cablecast on the channels in standard definition.  Small fonts cannot be read on many TVs.

• If your content and images will not fit comfortably on one 1920 x 1080 slide with large enough font, submit it in two or more slides.

• Please do not just submit just text and expect SCTV to convert it to a slide.
