“Spotlight On” is an ongoing series of educational, short four to five minute programs that has been broadcasting nationally on Public Television for 19 years. “Spotlight On” is the only program that guarantees 500 national airings (40% - 60% during prime-time) to a minimum of 3,000,000 viewers. We are the only such program with a Nielsen-based monitoring report confirming airings. (www.trivue.org) Should we fail to meet these minimums, the show will be re-uplinked at our expense until these minimums are met.
Although programs continue airing for a year or longer, the monitoring period is for the first 3 months of broadcast; actual total viewership is far greater than the guaranteed minimums.
Public Television Stations air “Spotlight On” programs daily.
Programs are developed in conjunction with the underwriter to ensure content & technical accuracy. The underwriter is given complete script and program approval rights.
All “Spotlight On” programs are distributed via satellite access feed from Washington, D.C. Prior to each “Spotlight On” satellite feed, all Stations are notified through the public television wire service, E-mail Express.
At the end of the program’s airing term, the Underwriter receives a Nielsen-based monitoring report detailing specific Public Television Stations, cities, market ranking, %TVHH’s, number of airings, and audience viewings.
There is a one-time cost for underwriting a “Spotlight On “ segment. This funding includes one continental U.S. location shoot, all editing, scripting, distribution, satellite uplinking and monitoring. “Spotlight On” programs make excellent marketing videos and Underwriters can be provided with a master, as well as digital copy of all footage shot!
VIDEO COMPRESSION / SOCIAL MEDIA
In addition to broadcast, we have painstakingly refined a technique of extremely high-quality video compression offering Underwriters the option of putting their “Spotlight On” programs on their website for additional exposure. We offer the same high quality compressions as seen on major motion picture studios.
Blogging, Tweetering, iChating, YouTube HD, Vimeo, or good old fashioned email - all forms of Social Media can be enhanced when we prepare your program for internet distribution. Our compressions include QuickTime, Real Player, Windows Media, Podcasting http://www.inta.org, closed-captioning www.aoa.gov/, even YouTube! http://www.youtube
FOREIGN LANGUAGES
Many underwriters are requesting their shows to be translated into foreign languages for global distribution. We can easily accommodate that. In many, many different languages. Look here - www.nace-found.org
