Both Aguirre and KGO de-

She would like to remain in the Bay Area.

SCHOLAR SHIP WINNER
ARSHIP S
WINNERS
By Alison Gibson
Amidst the crowd of people who will be cel-
ebrating winning Emmy® statues on May 12, four
students will be counting the $3,000 college schol-
arships they just received.
Our chapter is proud to award scholarships this
year for television production, videography,
reporting and the Thomas F. Drayton Minority
Scholarship. The students will be honored
during the Emmy® Ceremony at the Palace of Fine
Arts Theatre in San Francisco.
Peter Jordan, a Masters
candidate from Stanford Univer-
sity, successfully competed for
the Peter J. Marino Produc-
tion award. Jordan’s provocative
documentary and human rights
work throughout the African
continent is impressive. “The
greatest gift one can give to another is to acknowl-
edge and celebrate that person’s dignity,” he
writes. “I believe in the extraordinary power of
image to accomplish this – to transcend our differ-
ences and appeal to a humanity greater than each
of us…. and it is my passion to share this life with
others through filmmaking – wherever that may
take me.”
Alan Ransil, a freshman at
Stanford University, took the
Shelly Fay Videography
award. How can someone so
young be so talented? Ransil’s
skillful shooting and editing has
both a playful and thought-
provoking side, which makes
this engaging young student a rising star in the
field.

“Sarah and No Name After Dark.”

10am. The “After Dark” television version contains

Journalism. Pollack has a
particular interest in science
and submitted a compelling
investigation of biofuels and
genetic engineering. “I am
striving to create television
pieces that report news with
clarity, integrity and imagery
that stimulate the mind,” he
writes. ”I hope my work will help the viewer pull
back to a larger perspective and recognize that the
tiny moments and decisions of our lives reflect a
larger cosmological clock.” We need reporters with
such aspirations.
Oyundary (Daria) Tsagaan, also a grad
student at UC Berkeley, garnered the Thomas
Drayton Scholarship, offered to minority students
whose career intent is in the
field of broadcasting/journal-
ism. Tsagaan, originally from
Mongolia, wore many profes-
sional hats before coming to
the US to work on her Masters
degree in Journalism. “You may
find eyebrows rising over the
job titles that you see in my
resume,” she writes. “Do they reveal all the effort I
put into learning a new language while I was strug-
gling to rebuild my life all by myself with my two
little sons?” Her determination to succeed is very
much evident in the high caliber work she submitted.
“I like to imagine what my life might be like 10 years
from now,” she says. In all likelihood, she will
achieve the success she seeks.

Academy members, whose aim is to foster excel-
lence in television programming. The awards are

But both say they’re excited about
expanding their audience through
another medium. “I can’t believe
we have a nightly TV show,” says
Sarah. “Now all we have to do is be
funny.”
Executive producer Jan Landis mixes in video
clips, graphics, news, interviews, games, and of
course, highlights to help translate the radio show
into television. Both Alice @ 97.3 and KBCW TV

NST
WINNER
WINNERSS ANNOUNCED
By David Mills
A small academy in
Mill Valley dominated
this year’s regional
competition in the
National Student Televi-
sion competition.
The Academy of
Integrated Humani-
ties and New Media at
Tamalpais High
School, captured four
first place awards and
two honorable men-
tions.
High school students
from throughout NATAS’
Northern California
chapter competed in six
categories. Students in
all 20 NATAS chapters submitted their video entries
on-line and were judged by industry professionals.
The regional winners were pitted against each
other in a national competition.
In the regional arts and entertainment category,
the Academy’s Lucas Guilkey won for his entry
titled “Oranges.” Honorable mention went to Max
Sokoloff of The Film Workshop of San Francisco
Art and Film for his entry, “Voyage In My Mind.”
In the documentary category, the Academy’s
Aaron Wasserman picked up first place with his
entry, “Benchmark.” Guilkey received an honorable
mention for his entry, “What If Jesus Were Gay?”
In the writing category, “What If Jesus Were
Gay?” won first place for the Academy’s Wells
Caitlin. No honorable mention was given.
In technical achievement, Chelsea Walsh of
the Academy picked up both awards. Her entry,
“Born To Will” earned first place while her entry,
“Eat,” received honorable mention.
In the community service category, students at
Hawaii Student Television were awarded first place
and honorable mention. The entry “Therapeutic
Foster Parent 30-Second PSA” came out on top
while “Daughters of Hawaii’s Hulihee’e Palace
Earthquake Fundraising Video” was also recog-
nized.
In the sports category, Jonalyn Arao of
Waianae High School in Hawaii won for the entry,
“About The Ride.” No honorable mention was given.
The NSTV awards are held every year. Students
submit entries during January for work done during
the previous calendar year.

HAWAII NEWS
HAW
In the continuing saga of
Hawaii’s CBS affiliate, KGMB
has now lifted a hiring freeze
in its quest to launch a
morning news program. The
station is actively recruiting
both on-air talent and behind the scenes staff.
KGMB is still owned by Emmis Communications,
but not for long. The station’s sale to HITV Operat-
ing Co. Inc. closes this summer. No word yet on
whether the new morning show will debut before
the sale is completed. KGMB Senior V.P. and
General Manager Rick Blangiardi says internally
they’ve set a timetable for launch, but they’re not
making it public due to some wildcards beyond
their control, such as shipping schedules for newly
purchased equipment needed for the new show.
“We’ve been working on it for months.. we’re
gonna go after this,” says Blangiardi The station
plans to hire two new anchors, a weather anchor, a
reporter and producers for its morning news.
This is quite a shift for a station that cancelled
its last morning news show in 1996. “This is a
great indication of what’s ahead for us. We’re
hiring, we’re expanding and we’re buying,” says
News Director Chris Archer. “Here we come.”
If you watch the 6pm or
11pm news on KHNL News 8
in Hawaii, you won’t see
something you’ll see on
almost every other local
newscast— a sports seg-
ment. News 8 cancelled its sportscast on April
26th, the first day of May Sweeps. But the news
director insists you’ll still see as much coverage of
sports as before. It just won’t be segregated to its
own segment. “For the 40 or 50 years that people
have been doing local television news, sports has
been sort of the afterthought, at the end,”
says Dan Dennison, news director. “We are elevat-
ing sports into the body of the newscast.”
Dennison insists nobody will be let go, that the
only thing he’s eliminated is the time wasted giving
national sports scores and highlights, something
only hard-core sports fans are interested in, which
they’re already getting from ESPN and the internet
well before his newscasts air. “What we’re really
challenging our guys to do is to tell sports stories
that have broader appeal to an audience,” Dennison
says. The strategy, he says, is to be “hyper-local”
with sports.
Ironically, KHNL’s sister station, KFVE-TV,
televises University of Hawaii games. The change
in News 8’s sports strategy won’t affect that con-
tract. “We have 22 minutes to tell all the news of
the day and we need to do it as wisely and richly
as we can,” Dennison says.

 NEW HIGH DEF KSEE NEWS DIREC TOR
DIRECT
DIGS IN FRESNO MAKES UNUSUAL M
MOOVE
What do you do when your station is going HD
(16 x 9 aspect ratio), but your news set was built
for standard definition (4 x 3 aspect ratio)? KFSN,
Channel 30, in Fresno’s answer was simple. Build a
new set. A really nice new set. A $250,000 new
set.
News Director Tracey Watkowski says plans
for the new set were already in place before she
took over in September. It just took another six
months to get the set built and installed.
The new set features warm wood tones and
light blues. Behind the anchors is a large photo of
the Fresno skyline. But most dramatic is the large
video screen in the “StormWarn 30 Center.”
There’s also a small interview set next to the
anchors. “We can use the small set to do inter-
views, pet segments or other stories. It just gives
us more options for doing the news,” Watkowski
says. “We wanted to make the change because you
don’t want to start looking old. We designed the
new set with HD in mind because we knew we were
going to make the switch.”
The switch to HD is not as simple as pointing
new cameras. Every detail on the set, from the new
lighting to how the on-air personalities wear their
makeup, has had to be tested and refined. Audrey
Mansfield, a visual stylist who does the makeup
for Al Michaels and John Madden, says that with HD
cameras, it is important to use less makeup. The
consultant has been working with the entire staff to
make adjustments to makeup and hair color to best
fit the images being caught by the cameras.

In the end, it wasn’t the lure of a larger market
that sent KSEE, Channel 24 News Director Michael
Espinoza to Los Angeles. And he wasn’t chased
out of town by low ratings or a new General Man-
ager. Espinoza left Fresno to run his own internet-
related business. “All my family is still there,”
Espinoza says. “I have been commuting for two
years. Now that I have major investors on board
for the business, I am leaving.”
He’s going out on top, at least as far as awards
go. KSEE just won a 2007 Radio-Television News
Directors Association regional Edward R. Murrow
Award for overall excellence in news. This is the
third year in a row KSEE has won the regional
Murrow, and now the station is automatically
entered into the national Murrow Award competi-
tion to compete against 13 other regional winners
from across the nation for the big national honor.
Ratings-wise, the February book showed KFSN
still the commanding number one news station in
the market, but Espinoza leaves with his former
station in a strong number two spot.
Espinoza says it was a difficult decision to
leave, but one he knew he had to make. “I have
jumped in and out of the television business sev-
eral times,” Espinoza says. “I admit that this is the
first time I feel like I am truly going to miss this
place. It is a great station, with talented people. I
have never really felt this way about working at a
place.”
