VHVtv Interviews 2021

VHVtv is produced by Richard Gonzales and Sheryl Shaffer. During 2020, Veterans Helping Veterans hosted our first and very successful intern from the University of California Riverside, Richard Gonzales. Richard does our editing using Premiere Pro. This year we have produced 14 Virtual Interviews. Thank You VHVtv Producer Richard Gonzales.

VHVtv is produced as Community Educational Access TV for the Midpen Media Center in Palo Alto, CA.
Since June 2020, all content is created virtually and we have not filmed in the Media Center HD studio during 2020 and 2021 because of the Covid 19 pandemic. VHVtv currently resides solely in cyberspace at the moment. However, in 2022, we plan to film VHVtv in the Midpen Media Center HD studio and with new guest hosts during the spring or summer!
