Announcing the 2016 NATAS-PSW Silver Circle Inductees

/in /by

The National Academy of Television Arts & Sciences, Pacific Southwest Chapter (NATAS-PSW) is pleased to announce the recipients of this year’s Silver Circle, honoring individuals who began their careers in television at least 25 years ago either in a performing, creative, technical, or administrative role within the industry, or in an area related to television, such as TV journalism education, advertising, promotion, and public relations.

The five TV professionals to be inducted to the 2016 Silver Circle include:

German Andres Gonzalez, KBLR 

Darcey Gulen, NBC 7

Margaret Radford, Freelance Talent

Joe Riddle, KUSI

Paul Rudy, KUSI

“Each of these individuals has made significant contributions in television behind the scenes or in front of the camera,” says Donn Johnson, President of NATAS-PSW. “We’re proud to recognize their personal and professional accomplishments benefiting our chapter and our communities.”

This year’s Silver Circle will be held Sunday, October 30 at the La Jolla Beach & Tennis Club.

Established in 1983, the Silver Circle has close to 300 members. All candidates must have also made a significant contribution to Pacific Southwest Television for a majority of their 25-year career.  Only current residents of the chapter are eligible.

There are no inductees to the Gold Circle, which currently has 25 members and honors those who have contributed most of their 50 year plus television career to our Pacific Southwest Chapter.

Did your station receive an EMMY® award in the Newscast category?

If so, you may be eligible to purchase an EMMY® statuette if you worked on that submission.

In the Newscast categories ONLY (1-3), all participating staff members names and day hires will be considered as Below the Line entrants on the original entry form at no additional charge, subject to verification.  Those additional Below the Line entrants may purchase EMMY® statuettes within three (3) years of the award date. To purchase your Below the line Emmy go here.

Commemorative Statuettes

EMMY® awards are presented to individuals and not to their employers. Stations, studios and production companies officially listed on an entry may order a commemorative statuette for display at their place of business (one each per company; up to a maximum of three per winning program or craft entry if there are multiple companies involved).  The statuette is engraved the same as the actual Emmy® Award, with the word “commemorative” added to the band.  Commemorative statuettes are not for individuals. To purchase your Commemorative Statuette go here.

Production Certificates

Commemorate EMMY® Production Certificates – For those who worked on the production but were not listed on the entry form may also order a certificate, with approval from the show producer.

Any questions, please email Deb Lawrence [email protected].

Spanish Judging Opportunity

Earn judging rewards to use towards membership dues and entry fees

We have an online Emmy® judging opportunity this month to judge the Rocky Mountain Southwest Chapter, in Spanish categories.  When you submit your Emmy® Entry, you are agreeing to judge other chapters’ entries.  Without this reciprocity, there would be no Emmy® Awards.  Judges will receive one judging reward per panel judged.  Judging rewards are valued at $5- each, and can be used towards membership renewal, Emmy® Entry submissions, and Emmy® Event Tickets.  The deadline to complete judging is Friday, July 15, 2016.

Qualified judges need a minimum of 2 years of professional television experience relevant to the category being judged. To become a judge, please email [email protected] with the name of the panel(s) that you’re qualified and willing to judge, and you’ll be sent a link to the judging web site, along with detailed instructions, and a login code. You will then create a judging profile and view the entries online in the comfort of your home or office. Judging does not have to be completed in one sitting; you may start and stop as needed.
