INTERMAG General Assembly
Warsaw October
1 -2, 2010 |
Draft:
Proposed Minutes
1.
Opening
of the Meeting
Mariolina
Bronzini welcomes the members and especially the two representatives of our new
(old) member DR/Horisont
2.
Approval
of the „Proposed Minutes“
The proposed Minutes of the
General Assembly in Brussels, October 2-3, 2009 are approved.
3.
Presidency
Since
Mariolina Bronzini sadly enough is going to be retired March next year a
solution has to be found for the continuation of the presidency. Normally new
elections would be due in autumn next year. Unfortunately there is no reference
in the statutes for this situation. It was decided that Mariolina will finish
her term next spring and Vice-President Gerhard Losher will take over from then
until the next General Assembly where a new president will be elected. As a
goodbye to Mariolina and to honour her 16 years of commitment to our
organisation we will hold the next meeting in Rome.
Gerhard
Losher suggested an election of two vice-presidents. This makes the board
broader and in case of an early goodbye for whatever reason two people remain
responsible.
The
question came up who is to replace Mariolina at RAI after her departure. She is
trying to single out a person who would be responsible.

Membership
(a) Changes
·
At NRK/URIX Marit Moi is taken
ill and Torstein Nilsen will be the representative for the time being. Still
offerings and all information should be sent to both.
·
“Buongiorno Europa” of RAI/Milan
is to be abolished as from October 2010. There is a lot of protest against that
decision at RAI/Milan but since the budget is too small it will probably not
survive. Mariolina reported of another programme with RAI/Trieste “Est Ovest”
that would be interested. Editor in chief is Gian Paolo Girelli. It is a 30’ programme
with different reports and studio anchoring based at one of RAI 3’s regional
programmes. Mariolina looks into the matter.
·
RAI/Speciale TG1 changed its
format. It became a news show at the studio with interviews, discussions and 2’
to 5’ items to one theme. RAI decided that they prefer studio debates rather
than documentaries. Perhaps TV7 could replace the programme. It shows 10 pieces
ranging from 4’ to 10’. There are no anchors. Mariolina has to check whether
their films have IT.
We are actually 17 members.
(b) Applying
for membership:
·
SF/10vor10 applied for membership
and since it basically is a renewal the attendants were all in favour. 10vor10
is a daily high level news show featuring European and worldwide reports.
Because they have a show every evening it is almost impossible to send around
offerings. The members should consult the website and order directly. The
e-mail addresses have been sent around to the members. An extra page for the
booklet will also be sent.
·
At NRK there is part from URIX another
current affairs show “Weekend Magazine” aired on Sunday. They also have foreign
affairs reports and could be an additional member.
·
In our never ending attempt to
attract new members some candidates were suggested: e.g. RBB/TVP / “Kowalski
trifft Schmidt”, a polish/german co-operation with bilateral stories. At NRK
there is also an interesting current affairs weekend show on Sunday with
foreign reports.
5.
Exchange
·
Not only for 10vor10 but also for
other desks that have a daily show it could be interesting to receive offerings
on a direct basis in case a programme thinks it has a suitable report. For such
daily programmes it is almost impossible to screen other shows.
·
There was a remark about MTV.
Hungarian TV orders a lot of items but wasn’t able to deliver some images to
help out another member. We realize MTV is struggling but still there has to be
some kind of balance. The presidency writes a letter to MTV.
·
Our Danish colleagues said they
have no time to write offerings. It was suggested to take the press release and
translate a few lines and in any case be critical of what to offer. That could
reduce the work load.
·
Using material of INTERMAG items
to spice up own reports is not
permitted without approval of the
offering programme.
6.
Internet
·
Bente Lundstrom from DR/Horisont
points out that her programme cannot be watched in the internet, because DR
only has the rights for Denmark. Furthermore they cannot watch shows on other
TV websites, so the sending of offerings is important to the Danes.
·
Every station has a different
approach to the Internet. In any case it is not possible to show single
INTERMAG reports in the internet or use them for radio use, facebook, YouTube.
Only in the context of the programme the exchanged reports can be shown.
Especially YouTube is a grey zone concerning rights. Everyone takes from
YouTube and if a contact can be established rights are discussed. But this is
not always the case.
