The purpose of this organization is to foster campus-based video production, to encourage electronic media excellence, and to provide experiential opportunities for Indiana State students, particularly those in the Department of Communication, to participate in television production and to produce creative, professional programming. Sycamore Video produces weekly programs which air on ISU's campus cable channel 20. Some programs include "This Week at ISU," a traditional newscast, and "Almost Live," a talk show that features different campus personalities each week. Sycamore Video also hosts the annual Sycamore Video Expo, a short film festival open to all ISU students, in April. The submitted videos are viewed and voted on by a secret panel of judges prior to the event. All the videos are then shown during the Expo and the winners receive the coveted Woody Award.
