Announcing the SATV AWARDS THING
What is it?
It is a completely voluntary program that will offer SATV Members/Producers a chance to win an award for best video in their chosen category
What do I do to enter a video?
When you turn in a production from June 1, 2011 to November 30, 2011, let Patrick know you want it entered in the “Thing” and tell him the category. That’s it. No entry fee, forms or pressure to enter if you do not wish to. No productions will be entered without the producer’s consent or knowledge. If you do not want to participate, there is no difference in how your videos are normally received and aired. The final Judging will be done by outside (non-SATV) individuals and they will be looking at: content, coherence, editing, use of available technology, basic camera skills and overall “did it do the job they(the producer) set out to do?”
What are the categories?
We’re glad you asked

Entertainment: Comedy, Drama, Variety, Musical (multi-camera Performance based)…

Video-On-Demand is now available to members programs on Salem Access Televisions website.
SATV would like to make our new server available to producers as well. If you have produced a show recently, you would have the option to make it available on demand. You, your friends and your community would go to our website, search for your show and play it on demand, wherever you are, in Salem or outside it.
This would be completely voluntary—you don’t have to make your show available on demand. As always, your programming would air on our channels as usual as required by your membership agreement. After your program airs, you would continue to hold the rights to it and you could do as you pleased. You could air it elsewhere or upload it to another service. That’s always been the case and that won’t change with our Video-On- Demand system.
Many other cable access centers have video on demand and it can be a great resource for you, the producer. If you would like to have your show aired on-demand, please let one of us know. We will not be able to make all programs available on demand but at least a few from every producer.
