Call for NAB-HD volunteers

Feb 6, 2006 12:33 PM, Beyond The Headlines e-newsletter

    

Following the success of the model HD station at last year’s NAB convention, the trade organization is once again building a fully functional HDTV station at the upcoming NAB show inside the Las Vegas Convention Center in April. It will include a three-camera studio, live talk shows, roundtable discussions, remote ENG and aerial feeds. Several camera crews will roam the show floor to conduct interviews with exhibitors and attendees.

Last year a team of 26 volunteers created more than 12 hours of program content on a variety of industry topics. This year the team, led by Project Director Nigel Spratling, is planning more of the same, but volunteers are needed to make it happen.

The NAB is calling for qualified volunteers who would like to help out in a variety of responsibilities, including news anchor, producer, director, production assistant, script writer, technical director, audio, floor manager, master control, studio/ENG camera operator, graphics, teleprompter operator, VTR/server operator, Final Cut Pro editor, administrative assistant and automation operator.

Anyone wishing to volunteer or find out more information should send an e-mail to NABvolunteers@mavens.tv. Please include a brief paragraph outlining your job preference and experience.
