“The best way to get into the industry is to already be in it,” Bennett said.

The role of Media Assistant encompasses every aspect of working for a cable channel: editor, creator, and filmer. Bennett also assists in keeping the YouTube channel active. Bennett works as a camera person and she also edits film. She’s in charge of cutting out mistakes and putting in transitions to ensure the smoothness of the broadcast. She has also interviewed people from town officials to civil war reenactors.

The channel has covered many events in the Templeton area, such as the annual Arts & Craft Fairs, the November Fair at Narragansett Regional High School, and the annual Mac & Cheese Festival. Local residents also request to have events filmed, such as town meetings or a tour of the new school. Their broadcast can be found on channel 8.
