Film@Bay Saturdays on BayTV looks at the Eastern Cape's emerging film industry.

The community TV station BayTV (DStv 260) has a 13 part TV series entitled Film@Bay on Saturdays which is looking at the Eastern Cape's emerging film industry with presenter Busi Nako.

Film@Bay also includes short films produced by emerging filmmakers and gives filmmaking tips for those interested in entering this industry.

Film@Bay is executive produced by Denise Roodt of The Media Workshop in Port Elizabeth.

"There are so many talented people doing great work in the Eastern Cape, but yet the national perception appears to be that nothing is going on here," says Denise Roodt. "I wanted to change that. The show features production companies producing award-winning work of an international standard - from commercials and promotional videos to documentaries and adventure sports programmes."

Film@Bay is repeated on Sundays at 10:30 and Mondays at 16:00 on BayTV.
