Homemade TV started as a way to use small scale video production to celebrate and reflect the work of community leaders and supporters. The unsung humans who make our communal lives richer- the teachers, the volunteers, the not-for-profit groups- are rarely the subject of film. 20+ years of video production, empathy and and artist's eye allow me to create affordable video stories with a one person crew, and share these videos with the community they come from. Homemade TV began in 2010, with video yearbooks.  Since then, under the Homemade TV banner, we have made hundreds of videos documenting events,  capturing performances, profiling small businesses and community groups and trying to make the world better though video storytelling and art.

Tanya Murdoch is the creative heart of Homemade TV.  She is a visual artist, and alumni of colleges on both the East and West coast of Canada, with over 20 years of experience in video production in Tokyo and Toronto. She is also a mother of two and a volunteer, and uses her skills and experience to give back to her community as an artist and a videographer. You can see her portfolio of 2 dimensional drawing and painting work  here and a sample of her work with the Herbie Fund (an annual Citytv news series produced with Gord Martineau and Stephen Boorne since 2005), as well as the work she has done as co-founder of the eco-artist collective Works-in-Progress here (photo credit Douglas Sanderson c. 2019)
