Silver Circle and the Zoe Taylor Award

The Silver Circle movie is nearing it’s release date and they are looking for nominations for an outstanding female liberty activist. One of the protagonists of the movie is a character named Zoe Taylor, a liberty activist. In keeping with the spirit of this character the movie is looking to award the Zoe Taylor Award to a lady who exhibits “exceptional courage, principle and virtue.”

The award will be given to the winning candidate present at the 2012 Porcupine Freedom Festival. So nominees ought to be individuals that are certain to be there. Here is the text from the official Award page:

Send in your nominations for a female liberty activist who deserves the Zoe Taylor Award for exceptional courage, principle and virtue. Nominees must be planning to attend PorcFest in June. Registration is now open. To nominate a female activist please include her name, city, and around 300 words why she deserves the award in an email to award@Silvercirclemovie.com. But time is short, so don’t delay.

The Zoe Award will be presented before the screening of Silver Circle on Thursday, June 21st at 8pm in the Theater (the old Bingo Hall). We’ll be recognizing all the nominees before the award is presented. We are thrilled to congratulate all of the talented and passionate women in the movement. This is a great time to do so, and we hope you all get your nominations in ASAP so we have plenty of time to choose our activist wisely.

Free Keene TV

 

Over the past several weeks I have been working to create a local TV news show on Cheshire TV, the Keene based cable-access station.  Several activists and myself have been working to learn all the roles and responsibilities required to put on a quality programing.  Many of the key roles are filled though I am open to more people coming on board as well as finding alternates so the principles can have a week off at times.

The vision I have for Free Keene TV is one of a polished and professional news broadcast.  The show ought to be flexible and capable of being altered to spend more time on important topics with news being the priority.  The show ought to also offer a variety of topics and cover a wide swath of community concerns.

Currently, I am working on creating polished graphics and audio components to increase the production quality.  We have spent considerable time working on getting the lighting to meet a certain standard as well.  The show is scripted entirely including the anchor reading from a teleprompter, the only exception being interviews and freestyle punditry.

I have more openings for all types of roles and if you are interesting in helping either in front of or behind the camera, send me a message through the forum, facebook or shoot me an email at jjschless @ yahoo.com.
