Walter Cronkite: The Legend Re-assessed (Session
ID: 553)
(All Convention)
The death of Walter Cronkite this past summer marks
a watershed event for CBS News -- and the entire field of broadcast journalism.
This panel, consisting of scholars who have written about Mr. Cronkite’s many
contributions to the field—including positions he held and particular stories
he covered, will join with practitioners who worked with or around him for many
years. They will review his legendary impact at CBS News and the legacy he has
left for others nationally. Panelists will also discuss the standards he set
and enforced as managing editor and network news anchor—and the stories he
covered that made a special impact and set a tone for others.

Strengthening Pathways: From High School
to the Two-Year College to the University and Multimedia/Entertainment Industry
Workplace (Session ID: 401)
(Courses, Curricula & Administration | Two
Year/Small Colleges)
"Strengthening Pathways" was an
experimental, state-funded project designed to link secondary and
post-secondary faculty and counselors with Multimedia and Entertainment
businesses via interviews with industry contacts, and worksite experiences
(e.g. job shadowing, on-site training, collaboration on worksite projects) in
order to provide participating faculty and counselors with a comprehensive
understanding of current industry practices and requirements. Post-worksite
experiences resulted in six new, enhanced, and/or revised and articulated
courses that provide students with access to curriculum that has direct
application in the workplace. Results will be shared and compared with similar
projects that attempt to strengthen the alignment of film/broadcast/multimedia
courses between high school, college and the workplace.

Documentary: From Creation to DVD
Distribution (Session ID: 451)
(Documentary | Research)
Many scholars who attend BEA produce documentaries
as part of their tenure portfolio. But producing a documentary isn’t enough.
Some faculty need to produce films that reach national distribution for it to
count toward tenure. This panel includes filmmakers/professors who are tenured
or tenure-track and discuss the step-by-step process of getting the film made
(which includes grant writing), into film festivals, winning awards, picked up
by a television distributor and eventually DVD distribution. But more
importantly it’s a panel that discusses how your research (the film) is used as
a tool in the classroom to promote both your research and teaching.

decade of the 21st century, post-production curriculum needs to strike the
balance between learning the technology–to satisfy today’s students who are

the key to successful visual storytelling.

Contemporary television audiences are beginning to
question the distinction between entertainment and information regarding the
reality television genre. This panel aims to explore these concerns by
examining power and gendered representations of women featured on reality programs.
Television research has continuously criticized hegemonic representations of
female characters, as these portrayals provide a reflection of the values and
ideologies within a society. These representations may potentially influence
women’s lives by providing a cultural understanding of what it means to be a
woman.

reporter narrative. TV news often just does live vo/sots or reporter debriefs.
Newspaper web video storytelling often relies on only sound bites. Yet in
broadcast news classes, we continue to teach the TV news package as the high
end of the TV news genre. Is the TV news package dying? What is the future of
video news storytelling and how do we teach it?

Time Television in the 21st Century: Where the Past Meets the Future
Images in the media and how these images are
related to people's conceptions of social reality (cultivation analysis). The
presentation will focus on my research that has examined images in prime time
network broadcast programming for the past 40 years. Portrayals of aging,
gender roles, occupations, minorities, and violence will be discussed. The
presentation will provide a historical perspective of these television
portrayals. It will then examine the changes in portrayals that have taken
place during the first decade of the 21st century and what might be
contributing to these changes. Theoretical and policy implications will be
examined. The presentation will specifically focus on cultivation theory
discussing how television images continue to relate to viewers’ conceptions of
social reality.

Audience use of Social Networking Sites
and New Technologies to Form Communities and Impact Media Programming Decisions
(Session ID: 391)
(Interactive Media and Emerging Technologies |
International)
The panelists present research and case studies on
audience use of social networking sites and new technologies as a means of
communicating about a media text (e.g. film, TV show, talk radio, etc). While
audiences often form communities in these social networking sites revolving
around their love of a show, actor, or common interest (e.g. expressions of
grief) the sites can also take on an advocacy role when fans band together to
exert pressure on media producers regarding programming decisions. This panel
explores, for example, how fans of “30 Rock”, “Life on Mars” and soap opera
"The Guiding Light" have created complex networks on Twitter,
Facebook, AfterEllen and fansites/boards devoted to specific characters on the
shows. The momentum behind these audience networks may initially be to
celebrate a program but often advance to advocacy for plot and character
developments as well as showcasing amateur authors of fan fiction related to
the program. The audience movement has grown so large and so vocal that media
critics and network executives have taken notice and have, at times, altered
the media product as a result.

Should We Bother Teaching Media
Aesthetics? (Session ID: 341)
(Production Aesthetics & Criticism | Courses,
Curricula & Administration)
Are all the production rules becoming obsolete?
Have visual aesthetics hit the ultimate low or are they being morphed into a
whole new perspective? What’s the current perception of the importance of video
quality? Much of our teaching includes insisting on our students knowing and
adhering to shot composition rules. But now that everyone can record video and
post it on the internet, we’re seeing a marked change what’s acceptable. The
panelists in this session offer their insights on current visual trends and
practices.

Annual Telecom Update (Session ID:

(Law & Policy)
What should we expect from a new FCC under a
Democratic administration? The new FCC Chair has stated that, “with each
passing day, communications devices and networks become more essential to the
fabric of the daily lives of all Americans.” As we move into the second decade
of the new millennium, it is a good time to reflect on current happenings in
media law and policy. Was the DTV transition as painless as the FCC said? Will the long awaited competition between telcos and cable may
become a reality? Will the FCC’s proceedings on Localism provide impetus for
broadcasters to better serve local communities? Are privacy laws likely to
change under the new administration? Will the Courts make new rulings about
indecency? This year’s Telecom Update panel will attempt to answer these and
other questions.

Building, Repairing & Upgrading in a

Academic programs in electronic journalism, sports
broadcasting and media production require major investments in hardware and
software. Programs need to maintain their current infrastructure. At the same
time faculty want to stay up to date with an industry that continues to change
at an incredible pace. This is getting harder to do in an environment with less
funding. Also, some administrators and colleagues come from other disciplines.
That can put capital-intensive purchases on the back burner. A panel of faculty
including present and former department chairs discuss how to better navigate
in this scare world.

As visual communication industries continue an

their services to include content distribution across multiple platforms. This
convergence of services requires a staff of individuals with expertise in
multiple technologies and skill sets. It is therefore imperative to design a
curriculum that reflects this change in industry and has specific ramifications
for students entering the fields of journalism, creative services, graphic
design, and video production. The panel will discuss specific examples of
curriculum and projects designed to prepare students to develop multiple skill
sets in visual communication for cross platform distribution.

Transforming the Classroom and the
Curriculum with Technology: Case Studies and Research Findings (Session ID:
445)
(Courses, Curricula & Administration |
Interactive Media and Emerging Technologies)
The Courses, Curricula and Administration
Division’s goal is to support educators in improving course materials and in
generally updating curricula. This kind of support is especially important as
educational institutions face new competition from on-line universities, deal
with significant budgetary challenges and respond to a new generation of
students. Fiere (1998) contends that the primary goal for contemporary
educators is to create new relationships between students and teachers that significantly
alter the educational process such that students are uniquely empowered. To
this end, teachers must take on new responsibilities in the educational
process. Increasingly this requires the integration of various technologies
into pedagogical strategies. Moreover, in successfully employing technology to
transform student-teacher relationships, teachers will simultaneously respond
to the vital interests of increasingly technologically literate students
(Berenfeld, 1996). This panel will present 1) case studies related to video
production assignments on cell phones and technologically open classrooms and
2) research findings that assess the use of computer mediated curriculums and
asynchronous learning.

You Can't Script a Documentary... Can
You? (Session ID: 457)
(Documentary | Writing)
Frequently, the script is the most underrated
aspect of the documentary process. Many hold that the documentary-making
process should be fluid and organic, whereby the filmmaker experiences the film
as she makes it. However, in most cases, the documentary filmmaker finds
herself asking the question, “What should I shoot?” Here, it is imperative to
start out with a well-written script (or, a pre-shoot or shooting script),
whether or not things change during the shooting process or during the editing
process (the post-shoot or edit script). Often preparing a script beforehand
can make the difference between a bad film and a good film. Or, at best, a good
film and a great film!

Podium Session II: W. James Potter
(Session ID: 494)
(All Convention)
W. James Potter. Ph.D.,
“How Should Scholars Define ‘Mass’ in the
Changing World of 2010.”
The challenge of clearly defining the “mass
media” has largely eluded scholars ever since the term was invented. All
definitional elements that have been tried – size of audience, kind of
audience, type of message and technological channel – have proven unsatisfying.
Now with the segmentation of audiences into smaller niches, the hybridization
of message genres, and the blurring of lines that used to distinguish channels
of transmission, the challenge of defining mass media has grown significantly
more difficult. Or has it? Perhaps there is a way to cut through the complexity
and capture the essence of the phenomenon in a simple definition.

In the two years since its introduction on June 29,
2007 the iPhone has sold over 26 million units. Couple this with the iPhone
application store which in its first year grew to 65,000 applications and 1.5
billion downloads and you have a piece of technology that is changing media
communication expectations. Other companies such as Google, RIM, etc. are
adopting this model. This panel investigates the innovations and paradigm
shifts in media education that accompany the iPhone
and other smart phones.
