Interested in learning more about studio trainings and productions at Open Signal? Get the rundown on our studios in this information session! Learn how you can become studio certified, volunteer on an existing production, join the crew of our Open Playground studio production sessions or how to produce your own show. We'll walk through the process and answer any questions you may have.

Open Signal's studios are available to our members to produce their own content for cable broadcast or join the crew on an existing Open Signal series. Studios are available for reservation by members who have completed their studio certification. We offer a 4-part series of Studio Volunteer Trainings to certify members for use of the studio. Reservations are also open to members who became studio certified before 2020 once they schedule a studio refresher, which can be done by contacting our front desk at info [at] opensignalpdx.org or by calling (503) 288 - 1515.
