Radio, Television and Film: About Us
We are a creatively competitive and hands-on department that prepares students for exciting careers in radio, television, and film.
RTVF History
For decades, the RTVF program has produced countless productions and told hundreds of important stories. Our radio station, 90.5 KSJS, has been serving the department, SJSU campus, and the community since 1963. We produced our first television programs for local broadcast over 60 years ago. And our film program has been going strong for decades, exemplified by award-winning films produced by Spartan Film Studios.
Partnership
Our RTVF program has a long-standing relationship with the Cinequest Film Festival. A vanguard organization set in the Silicon Valley, Cinequest’s uniqueness and impact result from being ahead of the curve in the powerful integration of creativity and technology. Cinequest fuses the world of the filmed arts with that of Silicon Valley’s innovation to empower youth, artists and innovators to create and connect - driving transformations and a better tomorrow. Cinequest does this through Cinequest Picture The Possibilities and Cinequest Film Festival.
RTVF Alumni
