Entry Guidelines
Awards are presented in each category by marke size and entry selection. All programs must be locally produced, funded, and telecast during the period beginning January 1, and ending December 31.

Eligibility
Entries may be submitted by the station, and must include the names and signatures of the entrant and the authorized News Director or General Manager. Membership is not required for entry.

Submission
Multiple entries are permitted from each station as well as staff members. The same applies to Student category where multiple entries are permitted from the college or University. Material can be entered in more than one category, except material submitted in the best newscast category.

It is very important to submit a seperate entry form and tape with each entry. It is permissible to duplicate the entry form as needed for each entry. Entries can be submitted on 3/4 or 1/2 inch tape. No other tapes i.e. Beta, Hi-8, etc., will be accepted. Tapes will not be returned once submitted.

Please read the category information carefully as several categories require the tapes to be a certain length. It is imperative that entrants adhere to this request as judges are instructed to disregard tapes not following instructions.

Please make sure all tapes and holders are properly marked. Each tape must have the category, date of air, time and station on both the tpe and the holder.

Al entry fees must be in check or money order, and MUST accompany the submitted entries. It is not necessary for seperate checks to be written for each entry. A single check can be submitted for multiple entries, providing they are boxed together with the proper entry forms.

Judging
All entries will be judged by professionals in the industry. Each category will be judged by members of the electronic media. The judging process is unique as News Directors judge the Best Newscast category, Videographers in the Videography category, etc. This gives the entrants an opportunity to be judged by their peers. All judges look for the creativity, ingenuity, appropriateness to the message, that is depicted. Very careful atention is paid to production values. Remember, the judges are selected for expertise in their field.
