The Fairhaven Cable TV crew took the trip to Chicago to pick up their “Best Children’s Program” Hometown Media Award from the Alliance for Community Media Foundation on June 29th. “We had an incredible time,” wrote Alyssa Botelho who co-wrote the film with Nick Doyle (see 5/19/22 issue).
Erick Sa was the cinematographer on the film entitled “Santa’s Bell,” featuring magician Todd Migliacci.
The short piece was filmed at Fairhaven Town Hall and takes full advantage of the building’s beauty, vastness, and uniqueness.
Rumor has it that Fairhaven’s Town Hall is not only magical, but also haunted.
The 3 1/2 minute film aired at the beginning of their 2021 Virtual Home for the Holidays Event. The video can be watched on Fairhaven TV’s YouTube Channel at https://youtu.be/OAcWjtK2JMg.
