SmogTV is an online video project supported by HD Pictures and Post, a media and technology firm located in Santa Monica, Ca. SmogTV loans professional level resources to filmmakers in the LA area to shoot Internet video content of their choosing. SmogTV in partnership with DVWI, a division of Band Pro Film and Digital, supplies filmmakers with a Sony 1080i HDV camera, tape stock, professional sound (Sennheiser microphones, lavaliers, boom mics), and lighting gear, as well as access to a 2-story state-of-the-art post-production facility. Because of DVWI's support, SmogTV does not charge filmmakers for using these resources.

All content shot by SmogTV's filmmakers is posted on its main site, SmogTV.com. To keep the goals of the site consistent, our filmmakers retain the copyright to all content shot via SmogTV. We also believe in ubiquity and encourage our filmmakers to post their content on other sites as well (YouTube, MySpace, their personal web pages, etc.).

SmogTV's purpose is to create a community of filmmakers who can express themselves freely and to encourage new ideas and views that may connect with people around the world.

  • If you're a filmmaker in LA wanting to make a short you're passionate about, you absolutely need to know about SmogTV. They are smart, visionary, passionate and intensely supportive of filmmakers and the creative process. There is no catch ... they truly do as they say and give filmmakers use of high-end HD camera, sound and edit bay -- as well as invaluable guidance -- to create a short film. Robert, creator of SmogTV, personally commits himself to help you complete your film and is a dream to work with. For those without the resources to buy or rent their own equipment, SmogTV makes dreams possible -- this is an amazing gift to creative people.

    You can find the terrific films on the SmogTV.com site. It's only just begun...

  • SmogTV gives you the equipment you need to make your project, they have amazing facilities, and the website is the perfect place to screen your work. Beyond that, the people there are truly supportive and welcome all kinds of content. I can't say enough about them.

  • I love SmogTV! They have been an excellent resource for me and have allowed me to shoot two pieces with their wonderful HD camera-- provided by BandPro. In addition to providing production equipment, they have also provided a space to edit-- which has been invaluable to me since my MAC died earlier in the year. I encourage filmmakers in LA to contact Robert Kandle if they have ideas for stories they'd like to shoot in and around the LA Area.
