Helping You Tell the Story of Your Community!

WEIU-TV's This is Our Story project is a way for us to connect with the communities we serve as well as a way to allow those communities to tell their stories!

We got off to a great start in Fall 2014 with Effingham: This is Our Story and have followed up with 17 more installments. Our 19th program, Altamont: This is Our Story, is due to air Dec. 11, 2024.

In each program, we asked the local residents to serve as our "storytellers" for the production. They grabbed their video cameras, cell phones, GoPros, Flip cameras, or any other video recording devices and captured the footage for their story ideas.

We took it from there, editing their contributions into our final production. Every participant was instrumental in forging a partnership between WEIU-TV and their town, and we hope to give you the opportunity to help us serve your community in a similar fashion in the future.
