<br />New Blood <br /> <br />Every community programming facility has its group of core producers...the <br />people who stick with video production year after year. Most often they represent <br />an organization such as a church, and produce programming reflective of that <br />organization. <br /> <br />It's very difficult to locate, train, and retain <br />new producers. Video production can be a <br />frustrating, time-consuming, and technical <br />endeavor. To his credit, instructor Joel <br />Knudsen has done an excellent job of <br />recruiting, training, and assisting several <br />groups of new producers this past year. <br />We consider it a public relations and <br />educational success if people complete <br />classes and check out the equipment. If they <br />actually follow through with their idea and <br />complete a program it's just icing on the <br />cake. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Opportunity Partners shooting <br />"The Big Z Sign Language <br />Game Show" <br /> <br />h to work with several of these groups this past year. <br />They included a square dancing club called <br />the Hotfoot Stompers, the District 49 DFL <br />Caucus, representatives of ISO #11, the <br />Opportunity Partners non-profit organization, <br />and members of a U.S. Postal Union. <br /> <br />The most impressive thing about the list of <br /> <br />The Hotfoot Stompers shot <br />their show on location <br /> <br />organizations that became involved in <br />community programming in 2004, is that <br />not only did they complete a series of <br />video production classes, they also <br /> <br />followed through and produced at least one <br />program for channel 15. Equally impressive <br />is the fact that all of them are still producing <br />programs going into 2005. <br /> <br /> <br />The DFL Caucus produced <br />"Press Pass" with guest <br />Senator Don Betzold <br /> <br />5 <br />
