Judges will be seeking an entry which captures their imagination and surprises them. This may be because the story told is so unusual that it is memorable. Or it may be because the treatment is so diff erent from "everyday" programmes that it stands out as something special. Or perhaps it is a technical advance which can excite others in regional stations.

Perhaps there is the chance to meet some wonderful or unforgettable characters? Perhaps the programme has some special music? Perhaps there is an exciting title sequence? An unusual presenter? A single fl ash of television brilliance in an otherwise boring programme? Perhaps the format is new and out of the ordinary? Who knows? It is something, in short, which makes the entry diff erent to the normal expectations of regional programmes and which makes the judges say: "Wow! Congratulations. I wish my station had thought of that – and it's something we might try also."

MUSIC AND ARTS This category, sponsored by TG4 Ireland, highlights the social value of music and arts and the contribution they make to regional culture and the culture of the smaller nations, as expressed in video creative content.

The entry may be a short-form report, documentary or coverage of performance.

The subject matter is wide. It may be anything from the contribution of individuals to musical and artistic life to coverage of arts and music events. It may be, for instance, an examination of an issue relating to artistic or musical performance or evidence of how arts and music can contribute to the cohesion of society. As long as music and the various arts, their value, the love of music and arts are at the core of the video content, any subject and treatment are acceptable.

The defi nition of "art" can include painting, sculpture, video, dance and other activities. However, there is a separate Prix category, Entertainment and Drama, which includes scripted drama performance.

Where the programme is in the short report or documentary form, judges will pay due regard to the quality and interest of the story, the way the story is told, technical excellence and impact. Where the programme is primarily performance based, judges will pay special attention to the quality of direction, camera and sound, and staging.

NEWS STORIES FOR ALL In this category, sponsored by SVT Sweden, entries shall be news reports/stories of up to 5 minutes in length whether for traditional broadcast in regions or by other means of delivery. In all versions, judges will look for excellent skills in storytelling and technical skills (camera, sound and so on) whether on location or in the studio. TWO entries per region are accepted.

The successful entries will be those that demonstrate an approach to news which is modern and inclusive.

The past few years have proved that news producers need to make extra eff orts to understand and involve their audience and users. This category is for high quality news reports – but the judges will take into account not just the news content but the eff orts made to distribute as widely as possible and to involve the audience in the daily news agenda.

Judges will, therefore, also take into account evidence on how the story came to light to demonstrate a "bottom up" rather than "top down" approach to news gathering. Extra video of not more than 5 minutes can be provided, if wished, to explain the story source.

Judges will also take into account how the story was re-modelled for a variety of uses, including interactivity with the audience in social media. For instance, the judges would like to know where

CITIZENSHIP CO-PRODUCTION SPECIAL AWARD This Special Award is exclusively to recognize the best of the entries into the Citizenship Co- Production, managed by CIRCOM Regional on behalf of the European Parliament, which has fi nancially supported the administration of the exchange of programmes and features in the co- production.

The subject matter, as required by the terms of the co-production, should highlight topics which have wide European interest. In particular, judges will welcome programmes which refl ect European citizenship matters at a regional level. Programmes may be in the news or documentary or magazine form. They may be one-off s or part of a series.

Entries need to be formally approved by the CIRCOM administration of the co-production and conform at all times with the regulations of that co-production.

Entries can be produced as a co-operative venture by two or more regional stations in diff erent states, not necessarily contiguous. One of the partners must belong to an EU member state. Entries may involve the work of one or more regional member stations. However, the entry needs to make clear that the consent of all contributing stations has been obtained. Where the entry is a joint entry between two or more stations, any prize money will be divided between those stations.

This award and this co-production stress the importance of regional television stations co- operating more fully and achieving co-productions which explore confl icting views, diff erences and similarities between European peoples, states and various regional and other ethnic cultures. It is evident that European regional stations can work together to mutual benefi t.

SPECIAL AWARD 84 FTV, France Belgium Belgium report CITIZENSHIP CO-PRODUCTION

WINNER

C5-12 - THE GREEK TRAP (LE PIÈGE GREC) FTV, France

The winner was obvious for all the judges: France Télévisions' The Greek Trap.

Such a strong story: we could not ignore it! It asks us about our ability to host our European values. Values of solidarity, of respect... Can we accept that migrants are kept as animals in closed centres? We are diff erent after seeing this report, we must be diff erent having seen this report. It forces us to think and hopefully to act!

The story had exclusive access to a refugee camp and what was seen should concern all European citizens. The narrative construction, extremely distressing, is directly appealing to the audience.

COMMENDED

C5-03 - MY LAND (TERRAMIA) RAI, Italy

This is a local story but it is really touching and concrete. We talk about the fi ght against the Mafi a; we talk about corruption in general and everyone understands, everyone feels concerned, everyone wants to put an end to it! It is our duty to denounce it.

CITIZENSHIP CO-PRODUCTION

Since 2013, the Citizenship Co-production Project has been the main co-production of CIRCOM, creating a unique opportunity for several European regional stations to produce stories on common themes related to European citizenship. More than 30 million viewers have seen the reports.

Four main themes have been defi ned for the 5th round of the Project: Jobs, Feeling Safe, Values in question and Innovation Paradox. The stories produced are about real people living in real situations and facing real problems. They are not a series of interviews with specialists or politicians.

This is what the judges have underlined in their choice of the winner and the commended. Putting together the reports on a same theme gives the possibility of a view across Europe and therefore a better informed public debate about Europe.

The advantage of the co-production idea is that members broadcast not only the stories they produce but also the stories produced by the other members. It is this cross-border circulation of high quality reports that CIRCOM Regional is pledged to develop. The public service CIRCOM members work together, in spite of diff erences in language, cultural background, editorial approaches and TV formats.
