April 18-21, 2007 Las Vegas, Nevada Media 101: Creating the Future by Understanding the Past 2007 Convention Program It takes more than technology to inspire tomorrow’s storytellers. Introducing the Avid Academic Partner (AAP) Program: a direct link between the media industry and the schools that empower the next generation of media professionals. Let Avid help your school deliver a state-of-the-art media education with affordable integrated technology and courseware, faculty grants, student scholarships, and more.

Creating the Future Convention Program Chair’s Welcome Media 101: Creating the Future By Understanding the Past On behalf of the BEA Board of Directors, the Interest Division Leadership, Executive Director Heather Birks, Sales and Marketing Director J-D Boyle, and Office Manager Traci Bailey, I extend to you all a warm welcome to BEA 2007. Why are we looking backwards when everyone knows the cutting edge is where we need to be? Because the basics are at the heart of everything we do. When John Woody taught me audio production in the 1990s, we cut tape with a razor blade. When he teaches his students today, they cut binary code with a mouse. But I suspect that little else has changed in his teaching. The principles of audio production are the same, no matter the tools. Good audio is good audio, and no technology around can save a poorly thought out or poorly executed project. So looking backwards as a lens into the future isnʼt a bad thing. So welcome to Media 101: Creating the Future by Understanding the Past! Convention Highlights This year, we have continued the efforts to keep research at the heart of BEA by placing the Research Center at the heart of our convention space in N249 and N251. The Research Center will host all 13 divisional paper sessions and the Scholar to Scholar Poster session this year. In addition, there will be a distribution table where copies of all the presented papers will be available in case you canʼt make a session. Everyone will be able to find something to make the convention worth the trip. There are so many exciting sessions this year, on topics from iPods to crimes shows, from Lewis and Clark to internet radio. There is a panel on the future of tenure and a panel on the impact of the Radio Act of 1927. Be sure to stop by the panel honoring Michael Keithʼs contribution to radio studies. On Saturday, we are doing a sports mini theme that includes an analysis the presentation of sports on television, a presentation by Barry Abrams of ESPN Classic, a discussion about the preparations for the Beijing Olympics, and a panel on how to create practical sportscasting experiences for your students. It should be an exciting block for anyone who loves talking about or teaching about sports. And donʼt miss the expanded Exhibit Hall in N252, N254, N257, and N259. When the hall opens on Thursday you can browse, enjoy lunch, and catch up with friends all at the same time. And be sure to follow up the free lunch with free desert among the research posters. Acknowledgements While it is my picture on the website—I didnʼt pull BEA2007 off by myself. I have many people to thank. BEA is entering a new age with a new headquarters staff and all that BEA2007 hopes to be is because of Heather, J-D and Traci. I would be nothing but a quivering mass of questions without them. Iʼd also like to thank BEA President David Byland, incoming President Tom Berg, and the whole BEA Board for their support and encouragement. The Program chair canʼt function without great Interest Division Chairs—and I had some great ones. Speaking of Interest Divisions, Iʼd like to acknowledge that without the support of the Law and Policy division over the years, I would have never felt the courage to become convention chair. I am in the this position today because of the welcome that folks like Fritz Messere, Lou Benjamin, and Dom Caristi gave me a decade ago at my first BEA. On a personal note, Iʼd like to thank Westminster College for supporting a conference they knew nothing about, buying an ad in a program because I said so, and providing me with the services of the best work-study in the world, Kayla Smith. Without Kayla, this program would not be in the shape that it is (only the in the good way, the mistakes are mine). Finally, Iʼd like to thank my husband, Mike. He never questioned or complained about those Saturdays I went into the office to work on “BEA stuff.” Enjoy!

The Review Process Working with the Festival Chair, Festival Committee and the Competition Chairs, the Review Board serves much like an Editorial Board would for a scholarly refereed journal. The Review Board constitutes a large group of nationally recognized professionals and professors, who are organized into panels, which judge individual full time faculty entries in specific categories. This blind review focuses on the following criteria: professionalism, the use of aesthetic and/or creative elements, sense of structure and timing, production values, technical merit and overall contributions to the discipline in both form and substance. The Festival Committee targets an acceptance award rate of twenty-percent within full time faculty awards. 9 BEA 2007 Media 101 BEA 2007 HIGHLIGHTS Wednesday, April 18 9:00 am – 5:00 pm 1:00 pm – 4:30 pm 3:00 pm – 6:00 pm 4:45 pm – 6:00 pm 6:30 pm – 8:00 pm NABEF/RTNDA/BEA Career Day, LVH - Ballroom C, G & F BEA Career Day Sessions, LVH – Ballroom F BEA2007 Convention Registration, N250 Lobby Meet and Greet the Council of Professionals, LVH – Conference Rooms 1-3 Education Cocktail Reception and Keynote Speaker - Sponsored by Avid, LVH - Ballroom A Thursday, April 19 8:00 am – 5:00 pm 8:00 am – 8:30 am 8:45 am – 5:00 pm 8:45 am – 10:00 am 9:00 am – 4:15 pm 10:15 am – 11:30 am 10:15 am – 11:30 am BEA2007 Convention Registration, Lobby N250 Opening Continental Breakfast – Sponsored by Panasonic), N250 Apple/Panasonic Hands-on Training Lab (to view schedule and sign up visit N239), N239 A Newcomers Welcome to BEA, N235 Adobe Hands-on Training Lab – see program for details (seating is on a first come basis), N242 Scholar to Scholar Competitive Research Poster Session, N249/N251 New technologies.

Now you just need some tips and techniques to do the job well. Ms. Reardon and Mr. Flynn will help prepare you for that first time you face a camera so that you will be able to communicate to your viewers with elegance, tact and confidence.

However, some critics today believe radio is being “outflanked” by satellite radio and other new technologies. With the recent concerns that satellite radio may be actively developing receivers that can deliver “localized programming,” radio has scrambled to adapt without trying to lose its identity. Will these threats make radio better? What role will localism and HD radio play?

The new challenge—and the new opportunity—is to create compelling content that can be delivered quickly and easily in a variety of formats, while maintaining a workflow that encourages creative collaboration. How do educators stay a step ahead of the technological curve and effectively prepare students to adapt to a world where fresh content is required for multiple distribution outlets? What challenges do new distribution mechanisms present for educators who are grounded in traditional production methods?

As we begin the next decade under the 1996 Act, various players are suggesting that reform and reconsideration are needed in the telecommunications/broadcasting arena. New delivery of video promises to transform the way we watch television; but how does that affect the industry and those who rely on television and cable?

This panel will examine how, in the age of the iPod and convergence, local radio stations—public service, commercial and community—have re-discovered the importance and power of being ʻlive and localʼ and in doing so have re-learned and re-applied the lessons from radioʼs past.

With no substantive working-world reference to draw on in most cases, students are continually shortchanged in their quest for true understanding. This seminar will examine methods with which to open new approaches to relating both basic and advanced concepts of cinematography and digital image creation. The key is simple. Stop relating how things are done and start relating why. Moderator: Richard Crudo, American Society of Cinematographers (ASC), Past President of the ASC 3:45 PM – 5:00 PM [Research] The Research Division supports the work of BEA members whose interests include telecommunication research, methodology and interests not served by other divisions.

One of the conclusions drawn is that there is a shortage of qualified and professional journalists. A project entitled Transparency Through Journalism Education in the Middle East administered by IREX is joining three American universities with Middle East universities to develop new models of broadcast and journalism education. Panelists will address the partnerships between their universities and Middle Eastern universities and possible outcomes.

Even political parties are producing programs for a mass audience and calling them “documentaries.” Panelists will dissect this phenomenon, talk about the rise of politically based documentaries and their role in elections, and analyze the future of what has been traditional educational programming.

Personal computers with video production and web development tools are in the hands of students from an early age, both at home and in school. Some students arrive in our programs with high-levels of software proficiency, while others have little or no exposure to the tools and techniques of media production. How does one assess skills and accommodate to this disparity of expertise? Should prior experience be a criteria for admission to a major? How does one best help both beginning and advanced students progress? This session explores issues pertaining to skill assessment in admission decisions, curricula, course content, assignments and grading.

Alan Albarran, Center for Spanish Language Media, University of North Texas 3:00 PM – 4:15 PM Propaganda, Military and Special Purposes Broadcasting: A Historical Perspective. (Session ID: 120) N234 FRIDAY [All Convention] [History | International] “The first casualty when war comes is truth” (attrib. Sen. Hiram W. Johnson, 1917). From World War II to the Cold War, from Vietnam to Iraq, broadcasting has been used as a tool in “grey and black” propaganda warfare. Disinformation, misinformation and out-right lies have all found a place in clandestine and psychological operations (psy-ops) to “win hearts and minds.” However, radio and television has also carved its niche in the military sphere as a medium of entertainment and information (e.g. AFRTS, BFBS) for service personnel. This panel session will bring together specialists to discuss the history of various “special purpose” radio and television stations, whether Cold War shortwave propagandists, Allied forces entertainment broadcasters, radio/television stations operating in occupied countries, or cross-border clandestine broadcasting stations reaching out (via terrestrial or satellite transmissions) to specific target audiences for political purposes.

A media production curriculum may be used as a tool for undermining negative stereotypes circulating in corporate media. This panel discusses effective pedagogical methods for working with representational content that both informs studentsʼ understanding of race/ethnicity and gender systems and simultaneously facilitates their development of media literacy and production skills. Moreover, we consider how studentsʼ use of technology shapes their assumptions about representations of race and gender and their maintenance, paying particular attention to how student media production transforms embedded assumptions they may have held prior to the completion of the course. Addressing the interlocking aspects of these social systems, therefore, suggest how a student-based analytic framework may be developed for interpreting content. The panel concludes with sharing teaching methods that have produced effective outcomes on student academic performance, critical thinking, and empowerment.

It seems obvious that the Chinese government will have to loosen some of its control over the media when thousands of journalists descend on Beijing and China to cover the 2008 summer games and by agreeing to host the games it appears the government may be willing to make some concessions. The Olympics is an event of such magnitude internally as well as globally, it will surely have significant impact on a number of issues involving the countryʼs media future. Further, it appears Chinaʼs government can no longer keep its society closed given todayʼs technologies and ease in transmission via smaller portable satellite uplink packages. Moderator: Gary E.

The hope is that this effort will help improve the quality of the research competitions at BEA. As the competitions get more valuable, they should generate more interest. This may be a more long-term goal than most research efforts. However, it may be a necessary step in the ultimate goal to create a rejuvenated BEA research effort. The panel will address questions: How do you deal with papers that violate the basic rules of the competition—deadlines, length, plagiarism, wrong category authors? How do you find, recruit and retain these qualified reviewers? What do you do if a reviewer fails to do the job—or is too mean? How do you encourage diversity within a larger research competition? How do you deal with authors that fail to come to the conference? Mary T.
