Who we are
Purple Cow Cast is a division of Purple Valley Films that provides free live webcast on athletic events at Williams College. It is a collaboration between Purple Valley Films and and Sports Information. Run by students, this service covers major home games, so family, friends and alumni can watch the game online in real time.
To join us
This student-run service is considered as a campus job and you’ll be paid by Sports Information.
During a major athletic event, a production crew will typically consist of two camera operators and one technical director that manages the audio/video switchboard. Four to five people may be needed for one production, and they are rotated during half-time. Don’t worry if you know nothing about video cameras or video switchboards; we’ll provide the training.
Interested students should email Danny Y. Huang at yh1 [at] williams [dot] edu. Please include your name, class year, and phone number.
NOTE: You will not be paid if you meet any of the following criteria:
- You are a freshman already with a campus job.
- You are a freshman without a campus job and you do not receive Financial Aid.
- You are a senior (sorry folks).
