MTN's 15 Minutes of Fame

MTN's 15 Minutes of Fame is coming up this weekend! Make sure to stop by our studios during Art-A-Whirl and create your own professional video! #MTNfame

The Minneapolis Telecommunication Network (MTN), your media access zone, invites you into our studio to create your own keepsake video during Art-A- Whirl, May 19-21. Be a star of your own movie, sing a song, dance, tell a story, read a poem, or do spoken word. Bring your family and friends or come alone and make a broadcast quality video worth sharing with your network, airing on our channels, or becoming a YouTube sensation. You can rehearse and come prepared or improvise your performance right on the spot. Afterwards you’d like, we’ll air your video on our channel 17.

For just a small donation you can spend 15 minutes in the studio with professional videographers, along with complete graphics and a backdrop. We’ll give you a USB drive to store and transfer your masterpiece. Make a reservation for one of the time slots online at www.mtn.org/artawhirl or call us (612) 331-8575 or just walk in and sign up during Art- A- Whirl.

For more information about the Art-A-Whirl event or MTN contact Tene Wells at tene@mtnstudios.org or at (612) 331-8575 ext. 304

MTN’s mission is to operate a media center that helps Minneapolis residents, businesses and nonprofits develop skills to increase the social, civic and economic equity in our community via the transformative art of creating and broadcasting media.
