The 38th Annual Pacific Southwest Emmy® Awards honoring outstanding achievement in regional television in the Pacific Southwest including San Diego, Las Vegas, Santa Barbara, San Luis Obispo, Santa Maria, Bakersfield and Palm Springs
PURPOSE: To recognize outstanding achievements in television and allied media by conferring annual awards of merit in the Chapter’s designated award region. The presentation of these awards is intended to be an incentive for the continued pursuit of excellence for those working in the television and media industry and to focus public attention on outstanding cultural, educational, technological, entertainment, news, informational programming and craft achievements in television and on-line.
ELIGIBILITY: To be eligible entries must have been distributed to the general public via broadcast, cablecast, or broadband by a television station, a cable company, satellite, internet or similar distribution system.
Broadcast entries must have been produced for the Chapter’s designated awards area and must have had their first transmission in that awards area during the eligibility period. Entries must not have been available for viewing by more than 50% of the U.S. television homes during the eligibility year. Entries that are available to more than 50% of the U.S. television homes should be submitted to NATAS’ national awards (see exceptions).
Broadband entries must have been intended for consumption and be ‘of primary interest’ to a regional audience. It is advised that broadband content intended for a wider audience (a national audience) be submitted for consideration in The National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences’ national competitions.
Cablecast entries are deemed available for an entire market if the cable channel on which they appear is generally available to that market, regardless of the actual number of subscribers the cable channel may have in the market.
Entries which are broadcast only on a Super Station and which are specifically designed exclusively for their local market may be accepted for regional judging, even if the retransmitting of the station’s signal by cable systems make it available to more than 50% of the American television households. This may include regional newscasts or programs dealing with issues specifically related to the local community.
Entries dealing with national news or entries dealing with subjects of general interest beyond the local market are not eligible for regional judging. The Chapter’s Awards Committee may resolve questions of eligibility for such entries. Petitions, in writing, can also be forwarded to the National Awards Committee for final review and judgment. Works accepted for regional judging under this exception may not be submitted for National consideration.
Program length commercials (infomercials) and closed circuit programs are not eligible.
Pornographic, violent, defamatory or offensive material is not accepted. The interpretation of the Awards Committee is final and absolute. Entries must be submitted as originally shown. There may not be any post-broadcast changes except as noted in the category descriptions.
No entry may be submitted to more than one Chapter’s awards. Different episodes from the same series can only be entered in one Chapter’s awards.
Ineligible entries may be disqualified during any phase of the competition.
STUDENT PRODUCTIONS: Students are not considered peer professionals and as such, their regional student productions are not eligible for Emmy® Award recognition. If material is produced as part of a class, for which school credit is received, they are considered a student. If they are paid or working on a project with other “professionals,” and want to enter the Chapter’s award competition, they cannot enter as a student, but instead must pay the appropriate entries fees as an active NATAS member (or non member). The student is then prohibited from entering subsequent student production categories with other classmates. Student award recipients may not use the Emmy® name or replica of the Emmy® figure in any form of commercial advertising or promotion.
EXCEPTIONS TO THE 50% RULE:
1. Local station news coverage that may receive national exposure should
be submitted to regional Emmy® Award competitions.
2. The treatment of a local community issue by a super station that is
directed specifically to those living inside the station’s home market
maintains its eligibility in regional Emmy® Award competitions.
3. A local program that later receives national distribution may compete in
both regional and national awards competitions, but not in the same
eligibility year.
4. Local segments that are eligible to participate as entries in national
Emmy® Award competitions (i.e. News & Doc, Community &
Public Service) may compete in both regional and national awards
competitions under prevailing rules.
5. Broadband entries that can be seen worldwide via the internet
are eligible for regional competition if the content was primarily
intended for consumption in the Chapter’s designated awards area.
ORIGINAL MATERIAL: At least two-thirds of a program entry must consist of original material, unless previously produced material has been given some unique and creative treatment that, in the opinion of the Chapter Awards Committee, results in an original program. Entrants must identify all non-original or sponsored material, including its location in the program. Pre-purposed or re-purposed material is not eligible.
COMPOSITES: A composite is defined as a sampling of two or more representative segments or elements that convey to a judging panel the scope, breadth, or range of an individual’s talents or of coverage of a special event. The elements within a composite, unless otherwise noted, are to be “as aired” with no internal edits or post production work, such as music or special effects. Demo reels or montages are not allowed. One to two seconds of black between cuts, with no audio or slates, must be added to separate segments within the composite. Unless otherwise noted, a straight lift from a long work may be included as an element of a composite, but there must be no editing of the lift.
DOUBLE-DIPPING: The same program or segment may be entered only once in the awards, regardless of the category. Any entry that airs as both a multi-part series and as a full-length program may be entered only once in the competition in either form, regardless of the amount of new material added. A multi-episode program or series may only be entered in one category, not separate categories depending on the content of each episode.
An individual can only be recognized once for performing the same job, utilizing the same program content. For example, a Producer cannot enter the same material as both a full program and then parts of the same entry in the segment category. Nor can they enter the same material in both news and program categories. Craft persons, like writers, photographers, editors, etc., are allowed to enter in programming categories if they directly contributed to the content of the program or segment, and have the permission of the primary producer. If a craft person does enter in a program category, they are prohibited from entering the same piece again in their respective craft category.
The only exception to this rule is when a craft person performs multiple jobs on an entry; for example if they served as photographer and writer on the program. Then, they would be eligible to enter both in photographer and in writing. Under this example they could be recognized twice, as photographer and writer, since those are deemed separate job functions.
LANGUAGE OTHER THAN ENGLISH: Spanish-language entries may be entered and will be judged by a panel of Spanish-speaking, peer judges.
Programs in languages other than English or Spanish may also be entered; however judging of these entries in their native language is subject to the availability of qualified, peer judges who speak the language of the entry. Therefore, NATAS requires that these entrants submit a DVD with English subtitles or with English on a second audio channel, a précis or English transcript.
MEMBERSHIP: Membership in The National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences is not required to enter the Emmy® Awards.
JUDGING PROCEDURE: Entries made to this Chapter will be judged by panels assembled by other NATAS Chapters. These panels shall be comprised of no fewer than 5 judges who shall be certified as peers. No more than 3 judges on a panel may be employed by the same station or company. Judges may not have a conflict of interest, which is described as having a direct involvement in the production of an entry, or having a personal relationship with a member of the production staff of an entry. Group ownership, by itself, does not necessarily create a conflict of interest.
NON-COMPETITIVE JUDGING: Entries are judged against a standard of excellence and do not compete against each other. There may be one award, more than one award or no award given in each category. Any exceptions will be noted in the category description.
JUDGING REQUIREMENT: The success of the Emmy® Awards process depends on the willingness of qualified professionals to serve as judges. Peers in other NATAS Chapters are serving this Chapter’s entrants. This Chapter will judge other Chapter’s entries. By entering, you agree to serve as a judge when asked.
INTENTIONAL FALSIFICATION: The entrant warrants that he/she/they are the party(ies) most responsible for the award-worthiness of the entry. The intentional falsification of production credits or entry credits may be the basis for disqualification.
ENTRY ERRORS AND OMISSIONS: The National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences assumes no responsibility for the acts or omissions of those individuals or entities submitting entries pursuant to this notice. All submitting entities and/or individuals are advised to review submissions with respect to correct name credits and other information. NATAS shall accept all submissions that are not in conflict with any of its rules and regulations.
ENTRY FORMAT:
Entries will be accepted only as DVD video . PLEASE NOTE: TWO DVD COPIES MUST BE SUBMITTED FOR EACH ENTRY. The readability of the DVDs is the responsibility of the entrant. DVDs that cannot be ‘read’ cannot be judged and entry fees will not be refunded. It is recommended that you view on a late model consumer DVD player before submitting the entry.
The following guidelines shall apply:
- DVD-R format (DVD minus-R).
- DVDs must be finalized and ‘compatibility tested’ on a different DVD player than the one used to burn the entry.
- Brand-name disks are recommended.
- Printed DVD labels (paper labels) are not suggested; instead, use a permanent marker to legibly PRINT identifying marks on each disk. Ink jet or laser printing that can be applied directly to the DVD face (printable media) is acceptable.
- Use a clear sleeve or case.
- One entry per DVD. (TWO DVD copies per each entry.)
A one page written description may accompany each entry submission.
AWARD OWNERSHIP: Emmy® Awards are presented to individuals, not to their employers. Ownership of the Emmy® statuette is retained by the individuals and The National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences, even if an employer pays entry fees. Stations, studios and production companies may order a commemorative statuette for public display at their place of business (up to a maximum of three per winning entry). The statuette is engraved the same as the actual Emmy® Award, with the word “commemorative” added on the rear of the statuette.
WHO RECEIVES THE AWARD? Producers, craftpersons and other statue-eligible entrants as listed on the entry form receive the Emmy® statuette, except where noted. Others who work on a nominated or winning entry may order production certificates or plaques.
CRAFTS ACHIEVEMENT: In the Crafts Achievement Awards, those who actually perform a specific discipline receive the Emmy® statuette. Supervising or directing the work of others does not qualify for Crafts Achievement Awards, except for achievements in directing categories.
PROMOTION: All publicity, advertising or any written reference undertaken by nominees and award recipients to the Emmy® Awards, must clearly state that the awarded achievement is for a Pacific Southwest Regional Emmy® Award. The Recipient of a nomination or an Emmy® Award may refer in advertising and publicity to the fact that they have been honored for one year after the recognition was bestowed. They may use a replica of the Emmy® statuette in such advertising. The statuette itself may not be reproduced or used in any other commercial manner without written permission from NATAS. A ® registration mark and the appropriate copyright notice: © NATAS/ATAS must accompany any portrayal of the Emmy® statuette or moniker.
EMMY® 2012 Categories
The Emmy® award recognizes outstanding achievement in various forms of programming. The award is to the producer, defined as the individual or individuals most responsible for the overall content of the entry. The credit on all programming entries is “producer” regardless of the individual entrant’s involvement. The intent is to present the award to the producer directly involved in creating the program.
One award, more than one award, or no award (except where noted) may be given to the producer(s) and others directly responsible for the content and execution of the news program, segment or coverage. Anchors, reporters, photographers, editors, assignment editors, hosts, directors and qualified others may be eligible if their contributions are significant to the entry’s award-worthiness. For any entry designated as a series, a minimum of two reports must be included.
Program entries may be entered in only one programming category. In programming categories, an entry is defined as a single program or segment or, in the case of news, one story or a series of stories directly related to each other.
Programs exceeding 60 minutes must be shortened so that the total entry constitutes no more than one hour. A maximum of three segments/lifts is permitted to bring longer program entries to the required time limit.
