Open Television Review
Open Television is a video streaming service for intersectional TV, with artists and their creative visions at the center. OTV began in 2015 as part of an ongoing research project at Northwestern University. It aims to support artists and communities marginalized by their race, gender, sexuality, class, religion, disability, or nationality.
In addition to providing a network of care to foster the entire trajectory of a creative project from inception to release, OTV also offers connectivity, financing, and consultation throughout.
