Don't care. You are trying to create your own TV channel, start at the top, which is not whatConstantine did in that story. He worked his way up.

If you wanted to start a TV channel you would need to

1. invest in cameras, studios, and other expensive and sophisticated equipment
   
2. find presenters for your programmes
   
3. gain (as in, pay LOTS of money for) a license from the authority wherever you live (in the UK it's Ofcom)
   
4. employ technicians, cleaners, directors, workers... and so on.

Put simply, it's not something to be taken on by the faint of heart or of wallet.

If you're absolutely desperate to have a 'proper' channel, then you might want to try building a website which runs a live, streaming feed of your channel to viewers. You'd need a dedicated server ideally with no bandwidth limits.

While not broadcasting, you would have to provide programmes to watch again (to help get viewers interested and stop them ignoring it if there's nothing on).

Not cheap and not something to be taken lightly. You have to be serious, or you could end up with something like this. You wouldn't want that to happen unless you happened to be obsessed with Brain Box .

If you're just interested in making the odd film or programme, then I suggest make it, put it on the Internet, submit it to Current TV or a strand like Three Minute Wonder or True Stories on Channel 4, or maybe Storyville on BBC4. Most broadcasters also take single independent films if they like it enough.

All that is left for me to say is good luck, but don't be stupid.

Geroff my sig!

And you have now self destructed any potential you had to do ok on this site. Do you really expect us to laugh? We all made good suggestions to you. So don't go all "I H8 U UZ ROOND MY LYF!!!!!!111!!!11ONE111ELEVEN" on us!

Gimp.

WOW by any chance could that be paul Thingamijig?

I hear onetrickpony has a great TV channel. It's more interesting than watching paint dry.

Thanks, Jrothwell. Mr. Rowland.. cool down.... take it easy.

Seriously, I don't know who you are or your background but feel your ideas are noble if a little mislead along the way. You may as well just submit your ideas to YouTube if you want people to see your films, thing is you clearly have little to no idea what it requires to even create a rudimentary channel.

It's good to aim high, just don't think you'll be capable of hitting it because you asked some people. The story, whilst a good read, is just fiction. Also, calm the hell down, you're inexcusably hard to read when calm so keep your rage to a minimum. What does Starbucks have to do with anything anyway?
