The County Channel

Prince Edward County recently launched a new internet-based investment attraction campaign. Custom-made videos and podcasts feature first-person success stories of current local investors. The municipality has started its own YouTube channel, Facebook and Flickr sites where these video profiles can be seen across the world. Curious entrepreneurs and everyday people can watch the videos and easily share what they see with friends and colleagues.

With financial assistance from Community Futures Development Corporation, Prince Edward County has purchased a full, digital editing suite and all the necessary hardware to capture video and audio. We are encouraging local entrepreneurs to borrow this equipment and record their stories. The equipment is free to borrow and use. Once video and/or audio is captured, it is downloaded into our iMac and processed for use on the web.  When your project is complete you will submit it to Prince Edward County's Economic Development Office and once approved, will then be placed on The County's YouTube channel.

The editing suite includes:

  • 20" iMac with Final Cut Pro, iWorks and Adobe Creative Suite
  • Canon Vixia HDV Camcorder
  • Sony IC Digital Voice Recorder
  • and all the accessories necessary to make everything work.

Please make sure to book an orientation session with library staff so that they can familiarize you with the equipment.  Please note that while the library staff are available to orient you and answer questions, it is your responsibility to train yourself to use the equipment/software. For more information or if you would like to book the recording equipment, please contact Lucas McFaul at the Picton branch library.
