President’s Welcome Steve Shlisky President & Trustee, NATAS SF/NorCal Co-Chair/Instructor, Laney Media Communications Department, Laney College, Oakland Silver Circle 2014 Governors’ Service Medallion 2013

Congratulations and welcome all to the 48th Annual Area Emmy® Awards Gala. Mingling with your professional comrades, tonight we honor 560 individual nominees (many in multiple categories) for the 2018 broadcast year. Truly, work awarded an Emmy® statuette by the National Academy of Television Arts & Sciences (NATAS) attests your outstanding achievement.

You, in this room, are among the most gifted journalists and media crafts people in the Chapter. As your regional Chapter president, I am delighted to represent the talented professionals working in Northern California, Reno, , and Guam, as well as, at the national NATAS meetings as trustee.

Emmy® Gala Chair Amanda Howard organized this evening’s outstanding event. Special thanks to Chapter Award Committee Chair and Emmy® legend Wayne Freedman and the devoted National Award Chair Linda Giannecchini for riding herd over the myriad details pulling off the Gala this year. Wayne and Linda have guided a long award process which culminates tonight. My special appreciation goes to Paul Hodges, Scott Patterson and Patty Zubov, who were instrumental in securing sponsors and marketing the Gala. Da Lin, Kim Stephens and Kevin Wing reprise their role interviewing on the red carpet. Larena Hernandez and Noemi Zeigler Sanchez again provide live coverage on social media. And as always, a special salute to our longtime Executive Director Darryl Compton who manages the countless details that make this event possible. This dazzling night depends on the outstanding resources of the full Emmy® Gala Committee (see page 9 of your program for the full committee list). Thank you for all your hours of phone calls, emails, meetings, site surveys and just plain hard work.

Tonight is special because you have made it special. Your toil, labor, and dedication to excellence contribute to this great occasion. We come here, our most important event of the year, because of you. Have a great evening.

Steve Shlisky

On behalf of the Board of Governors, the Emmy® Awards and Emmy® Gala Committees, welcome to our 48th Annual Northern California Area Emmy® Awards. Tonight’s ceremony honors excellence in a region encompassing Northern California, Reno, the Hawaiian Islands, and Guam.

The English contest had another strong year, with 712 entries and 227 nominations in 64 categories. In Spanish, 225 entries garnered 84 nominations in 45 categories. Volunteers from five NATAS chapters judged the contests separately. Tonight, we celebrate the combined 311 nominees whose work stood out in the top 33% of entries. You are here, this year, because juries of your peers in other chapters loved your work and scored it highly. The nomination counts as an award in its own rite. That golden statuette reflects a higher level of it. You have earned every right to be proud.

Text your friends and tell them to watch on our live dual webcast, tonight. They can view the On-Stage Ceremony or the Red Carpet Interviews: www. emmysf.tv. We will post results on at @EmmySFTV. Share your posts and photos with the hashtag #EmmySF.

To keep the evening moving smoothly, please refer to our section about awards procedure and “Emmy® Etiquette” (on page 15)

Thank you to all of our volunteers and staff who worked hard to make this event a success. Thank you to the SFJAZZ Technical team for their fine work, this evening. Thank you to Beyond Pix Studios, and an extra special thanks to our director Randy Forsman, and lighting guru Robert Erdiakoff.

Congratulations to all the Emmy® Nominees. Good luck!

7 2018-2019 Awards Judging Procedures

The San Francisco/Northern California Chapter annually honors outstanding individual, news and program achievements in Northern California, Hawaii and Reno. The purpose of conferring the coveted Emmy® statuette is to provide incentive for continuing outstanding individual and production achievements within the television industry. The Emmy® Awards program is also a means of focusing public attention upon the multi-talented individuals who comprise this business and to honor them. There can be one award, more than one award or no award presented in each category.

This was another great year with 937 entries (712 English and 225 Spanish) submitted in 64 English and 45 Spanish categories from the calendar year 2018, for Emmy® award consideration. All entries were submitted and uploaded through Emmy® Express and then judged online by the following NATAS chapters: Chicago/Midwest; Lone Star (Texas); Mid-Atlantic (Philadelphia); Sun Coast () and Upper Midwest (Minneapolis/Saint Paul). At least seven peers viewed and scored each entry. English and Spanish entries are judged separately. The online programs were scored for content, creativity, and execution (1 to 10 points), for a possible total of 30 points. Craft categories are judged on creativity and execution only, for a possible 20 points. After scoring all the entries in the category, the judge certified his or her scores and submitted the ballot directly to our accountant for processing.

A tabulated sheet representing each category, with separate entries for English and Spanish - but not identified - was presented to the Awards Committee. The committee determined a cut-off in each category and entries above that score were considered nominees. The committee then selected the Emmy® recipients by highest scores. The Awards Committee members made these selections without knowing which entries or categories were being considered. The nominations were announced May 8, 2019 on the chapter’s website. 227 English and 84 Spanish entries were nominated with 1,029 certificates being handed out to 560 individuals. Tonight, we will see the top scores of Emmy® award excellence.

Emmy® Etiquette

Congratulations, 2019 Emmy® Nominees from your Gala Committee. This is a reminder of the changes we made several years ago that have helped to streamline the show and some new additions.

1. We will be announcing the recipients of a category at the same time again this year. All recipients will come to the house left steps to the stage and will be told which podium to use. You will be given your statuettes and the lights will be on one of the two podiums for your 30 second speech. Then you will exit and the lights will come up on the second podium for the other speech. 2. Each nominee has submitted a spokesperson that is designated to give a speech, should that nominee receive an award. 3. When the Host reads the award recipient, they will also read the name of that spokesperson. But if that spokesperson is not available to come onto the stage, other parties may come onto the stage to receive the statuette in their place. 4. In the event that no spokesperson was submitted with the nomination, then the host will simply announce the Award Recipient and NO ONE will be permitted on the stage for that category. 5. The spokesperson should come up onto the stage using the stairs on the left. 6. Once on the stage, the spokesperson will receive a temporary statuette. 7. The spokesperson is then welcome to approach the microphone and give their speech. 8. Other parties are welcome to join the spokesperson on the stage...but they will not be permitted to give a speech. 9. All speeches are limited to 30 seconds. 10. If you are not the designated spokesperson, or you have already given a speech, you will not be permitted to give a speech and will be disappointed to find, that the microphone will not be active. 11. After receiving the award statuette, parties will be escorted backstage to deposit the temporary statuette and to the Red Carpet area. 12. When you get to the Red Carpet area you will sign and receive your engraved Emmy® statuette, be interviewed on the Red Carpet webcast and have your formal photo taken.

32 33 THE GOVERNORS’ AWARD: THE DEPARTMENT OF BROADCAST AND ELECTRONIC ARTS SAN FRANCISCO STATE UNIVERISTY

PRESENTING: Dennis O’Donnell Sports Director/ Anchor, KPIX 5

ACCEPTING: ACCEPTING:

Dr. Andrew Harris, Dr. Nancy L. Reist, Dean College of Liberal Chair, Broadcast and Creative Arts and Electronic Arts Department 34 The Broadcast and Electronic Communication Arts Department (BECA) was founded in the Fall of 1946 when a new course, “Radio Speech,” was introduced into the curriculum of the Drama-Speech Department by Prof. Raymond Doyle. The new program immediately attracted students and the following semester two additional courses, “Radio Acting” and “Radio Production,” were offered. In the 1947-48 academic year, a Department of Radio was designated within the University’s Creative Arts Division. In the early 1950s, the department moved from downtown San Francisco to new radio studios at the present Lake Merced Campus. In 1961, the Department was renamed the Department of Radio- Television-Film. It was renamed again as Broadcast Communication Arts in 1967. The first television production courses were taught Spring semester 1961 in temporary quarters. By 1966 the present television facility was constructed with an expenditure of about $3.5 million. In 1974 audio production facilities were added, thus completing the department’s physical plant. The department began to achieve national recognition in the late 1950s and early 60s, primarily because of the work of Dr. Stuart Hyde, longtime department chair, and Dr. Herbert Zettl, whose work on media aesthetics achieved an international reputation. In 1992, the program’s name was changed to the Broadcast and Electronic Communication Arts Department. The change reflected the faculty’s judgment the program could no longer focus exclusively on the conventional radio, television and audio media. BECA is one of the largest and most successful electronic media education programs in the world. As BECA approaches its 75th year of serving the people of California, the university is constructing a new multi-million dollar facility to teach electronic media to future generations of Californians. 35 Interview/Discussion English Feature/Segment “Politically Speaking: The Race for California Governor,” KTXL FOX 40 Nikki Laurenzo, Producer/Anchor; Victor Nieto, Photographer “Rob on the Road: Historic Sacramento Images,” KVIE 6 Rob Stewart, Executive Producer/Host “Round Table - Race Relations in Sacramento,” KXTV 10 Lina Washington, Reporter Program/Special “Check, Please!
