Running an effective and efficient station can be a challenging job. The degree of difficulty also changes depending upon your ability to spend time at your station. Some stations have the luxury of a paid station manager who oversees the operation on a daily basis. Others must rely on volunteers or boards to operate them successfully. Some are even a combination of both. However it is that your station is staffed, you need tools to help you successfully operate. JAG understand this. With this in mind, JAG is announcing our Manager’s Roundtable Discussions for 2023. These are special virtual meetings designed specifically for those who are involved in the oversight and operation of the PEG channel.
Thursday, January 12th at 2pm: Join us as we discuss “Sponsorship Opportunities for your Station”. Learn from those who are currently doing or have done this, what is involved and for what you need to prepare yourself. This is an open discussion designed for station managers to interact with each other, share personal experiences and ask questions of concern on the topic.
Thursday, March 9th at 2pm: Join us as we discuss “In Studio Productions”. Do you have a studio space or are looking to create a studio space? Learn how stations are utilizing space to create a studio, quality content and more. We will discuss all different sizes of studios from a small insert to a larger multi-set space. Find out about shows created, set designs and equipment used. This is an open discussion designed for station managers to interact with each other, share personal experiences or ask questions of concern on the topic.
Thursday, June 8th at 2pm: Join us as we discuss “Field Productions: Multi-Camera Productions both Live and Live to Tape”. How are stations covering larger events that require multiple cameras, including live switching, live streaming or live to tape coverage. We will discuss production vehicles, fly packs, portable switchers and the latest in live streaming. Come prepared to discuss your needs, budgets and capabilities. Learn from those doing it currently and hear from those who want to take the next step. This is an open discussion designed for station managers to interact with each other, share personal experiences or ask questions of concern on the topic.
Thursday, September 14th at 2pm: Join us as we discuss “Sports Coverage”. From single camera shoots to multi-camera shoots with live switching and cameras that can stream, add graphics and more. We will discuss having play-by-play announcers to take your coverage to the next level and how you can create a big budget feel with a small crew or even single camera coverage. Hear from stations currently covering sporting events and listen to those who want to take the next step. This is an open discussion designed for station managers to interact with each other, share personal experiences or ask questions of concern on the topic.
Thursday, November 9th at 2pm: Topic To Be Announced. Do you have a specific topic you would like to discuss? Please reach out to JAG President Bob Duthaler and discuss your ideas on topics you would like to discuss. Contact information: bduthaler@jagonline.org
