WARRENSBURG, MO 鈥� Among the public television station professionals honored at a recent awards gala event in Salt Lake City was producer Christy Millen. For their work on creating a video promoting the third season of 鈥淢issouri Life,鈥� she and her colleagues received an award and recognition by industry peers.

The red carpet event, held Jan. 21 in Salt Lake City, opened the 2019 National Educational Telecommunications Association Conference, an annual gathering of public television professionals from across the nation. The competition, first organized in 1968, honors NETA member stations' achievements in community engagement, promotion, instructional media, and content production.

鈥淓very one of us working in public media today can be proud of the NETA Award winners,鈥� said NETA president Eric Hyyppa. 鈥淲hen you look at the achievements that these projects represent, making our services relevant and valuable to our communities, you can鈥檛 help but be inspired for the future.鈥�

In submitting the promo for consideration, Millen wrote:  鈥淭he intention behind the spot was to play off the words 鈥渂est of鈥� by showcasing the 鈥渘ot-so-best-of鈥� moments with our host attempting to say the script from memory on-camera. It was received well on social media, and remains one of the season鈥檚 favorites amongst our fans. The series鈥� high production values and content quality have persuaded KCPT in Kansas City and KETC in St. Louis to share Missouri Life with their audiences as well.鈥�

One judge wrote 鈥淭his was a great spot for two reasons: 1.) You brilliantly combined humor/human fallibility with a behind-the-scenes look at a favorite show. The fact that this was promoting a Best of show just added to the humor and brought the viewer in on the joke. 2.) You don't take yourselves seriously. Very nice, and a great twist on what could have been a rather standard promo.鈥�

The 鈥淢issouri Life鈥� series was created by KMOS-TV, the 欧美视频鈥檚 public television station, in collaboration with the publishers of 鈥淢issouri Life Magazine.鈥� Consisting of 28 programs, the series is available to watch online at kmos.org or the PBS App available on mobile devices.

In previous years KMOS has received NETA awards for: a video profile of the National Churchill Museum in Fulton (2014), Special Event and Community Engagement based on the Event (2012 Kids Day), 鈥淛erry Adams Outdoors 鈥� Kiss the Fish Again鈥� (2011), 鈥淭he Bacon Brothers-Michael鈥檚 Revenge鈥� (2010).
