Other Icons: • When a viewer clicks on the icon of our production trailer they will see a list of the events that the trailer will be at such as parades, sporting events and candidate forums. The icon of our commission store will provide a place for people to purchase DVD's of parades, sporting events and other programs that they want a copy of. We also have an icon of our fictional TV station which will be the place to go to and see the channel schedule and find out more about our commission and staff. Viewers can sign up at the area wide channel recruitment center if they would like to run camera on a trailer shoot or find out about any city openings for cable casters. Branding The map is not meant to be an accurate representation of every road and river but to be a portal into the world that is the Sherburne Wright Cable Commission and its TV channels. It is a one stop place for viewers to go to have their questions answered about everything that we do. We are excited to see how many volunteers as well as new viewers it will attract to our channels each time they see our trailer with this logo at city festivals and events. We want to print t-shirts with the logo on it to give to our volunteers so that when they run one of our cameras at a production shoot,people will take notice and understand that we our their community government channel. Equipment Needs Assessment • We are in the process of doing a long term equipment needs assessment in each of our commission member cities. This assessment will look at improvements needed to keep our channels and council chambers running effectively while upgrading to the High Definition format. Phasing in this equipment is becoming necessary as replacement pieces for the SD format are becoming harder and harder to find. If I have not contacted you already I will be soon. After all the meetings are done I will prepare a needs assessment report and present it to the commission. I expect to have it completed for the fall quarterly commission meeting. City Inter-Connection Progress We have completed the necessary IT interconnection work in the following cities Buffalo, Watertown, Dassel and Maple Lake as well as the area wide channel. This connection will allow us to send programming to each city government channel via the internet. We are using the Ultra Nexus equipment in each city to complete this interface. We hope to have the remainder of the cities operational before their parades. •
