Digital Age Workflow / Re-drawing the Org Chart
We’re all in a new business. Audience expectations and
cost-effectiveness demand we make the transition to full digital
workflow. Almost everything technical we ever learned about making
and delivering television is no longer true. Treating content as
nothing more than a set of files that can be modified, stored,
delivered – and destroyed, more easily and cheaply than tape-based
content is a fabulous opportunity, and a huge challenge. Equipment,
people, processes and structures will all be dragged through the
change, willing or unwilling. Come and hear some of what our station
learned as we walked the road toward becoming “just one huge
server.”
Producer: LaWanna Duncan, WUFT-TV/FM
Presenter: Christine Maloney, Twin Cities Public Television
Learning Objectives:
Learn the benefits of using digital technology to break down the
walls between production, post production, broadcast, web delivery
and archiving.
Understand how converting to a digital, moving-toward-tapeless
workflow will inevitably change your station and your staff.
Learn about some of the challenges and pitfalls of making the
transition.

20 Fundraising Questions – Public Radio Member Demographics and
Giving Behavior

first-ever demographic study of fundraising behavior, a partnership
