by Staff April 15, 2008 LOS ANGELES, (christiansunite.com) -- There is still time to submit new programs for the TBN Innovate Program Challenge. Program producers that are attending NAB in Las Vegas can schedule time to meet with one of TBN's program executives to discuss their pre- produced show. Appointments are still available. NAB attendees are encouraged to set up meetings with TBN program executives in advance by emailing Joan Higley at jhigley@tbn.org. For more information visit www.tbnnetworks.com/innovate or www.tfwm.com/innovate. The INNOVATE! contest inspires producers to rise to the top of their craft by submitting fresh, original ideas for high quality programming to air on TBN's four specialized networks - Smile of a Child, for viewers age 2 to 12; JCTV, for teens and young adults age 13 through 29; the Church Channel, for viewers who enjoy worship, teaching, and preaching; and TBN Enlace USA, for Hispanic viewers. "TBN viewers have come to expect thought-provoking, well-written, and spiritually-charged programming that entertains and positively influences their lives," says Paul Crouch, Jr., Chief of Staff at TBN. "Last year's INNOVATE! contest confirmed to us just how much hidden talent is out there, just waiting to be uncovered," said Crouch. INNOVATE! Program Challenge 2008 contest winner(s) will be unveiled by Crouch on TBN's popular Behind the Scenes program (date to be announced). The winning program(s) will premier on TBN and then begin airing on one or more of TBN's digital networks, which are picked up around the globe and seen by millions. "TBN's unique brand of inspirational programming continues to fill an ever-increasing world-wide demand for powerful, engaging, faith and family- friendly content," says Crouch. "The TBN family of networks is continuously on the lookout for programs that will capture the imagination of our viewers, who have come to expect the very best offerings in faith and family-friendly fair." "Producers wishing to submit programs can do so in one of two ways," says Joan Higley, TBN's Cable Affiliate Relations Manager. "Attendees of the National Association of Broadcasters (NAB) convention in Las Vegas, which runs April 14th through 17th, are invited to submit DVDs of their programs in person at the Technologies for Worship Pavilion in the Central Hall at the TBN Networks booth, C10442. Producers not attending the NAB can submit their program on DVD to The Ultimate TBN Networks Program Challenge, 2442 Michelle Drive, Tustin, CA 92780, by April 30th." "In association with the INNOVATE! Program Challenge, Technologies for Worship Pavilion and Conferences is offering a free subscription to Technologies for Worship Magazine," says Higley. "TBN viewers wishing to sign up for a complimentary issue may do so by visiting www.tfwm.com/subscribepromocode, and entering the word INNOVATE! in the promotional code box."
