Ernst & Young National Entrepreneur Of The Year® 2011
Posted by TheBigPicture in Awards on November 14, 2011
The Big Picture is proud to have been involved in the nomination of LinkedIn’s Reid Hoffman and Jeff Weiner, who were this year’s big winners at the Ernst & Young National Entrepreneur Of The Year® 2011 Awards. We had the privilege of interviewing both Reid and Jeff who prove to be visionaries in innovative business technology, a true example of what it means to be an entrepreneur. It’s exciting to see a company from Northern California make it to nationals and continue forward on their way to Monte Carlo!
It was also a pleasure to catch up with Aubrey McClendon of Chesapeake Energy, who we would like recognize and congratulate on his win. It was like dragging a horse to water trying to involve him in the program some three years ago. With the help of the folks at EY in Dallas and their nominators not only is Aubrey now knee deep in the water, he’s a celebrated EOY National winner.
Congratulations to those who were recognized in this weekend’s event. The economic opportunities and entrepreneurial spirit you share with the rest of us help inspire optimism and promise in the face of a declining economy.

We can’t think of a better opportunity to be surrounded by legends of broadcast than at The National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences San Francisco/California Chapters’ Gold & Silver Circle “Class of 2011” Induction Luncheon. This Saturday George stood amongst his idols, mentors and peers to help honor this year’s inductees for their contributions to Northern California television. George had the honor of being a presenter and inducting the wonderful Suzanne Saunders Shaw. We were also excited to see the Steve Davis Under- Graduate Overall Excellence Scholarship awarded to Mario Ayala from the College of San Mateo and the Jerry Jensen Graduate Overall Excellence Scholarship awarded to Paul Meyers from Stanford University. We are proud to contribute to the future of media creators and look forward to working with the next generation of broadcast journalists in the years to come.

The Big Picture takes home two Emmy® awards
Posted by TheBigPicture in Awards, Events on June 21, 2011
We are so pleased and honored to have taken home two Emmy® awards this year– Chris Roy for Editing “Jay Maisel”, and George Lang for Directing “Jay Maisel”.
This piece is a great example of an American corporation aligning itself with a recognized award-winning artist to tell his story. Rather than use the time for a major commercial push, they chose to tell the story of the artist, and thus conveyed that this alignment message was about quality in the person and the company recognizing that person. This ended up being the most powerful message that there can be.
Below are some images of George and Chris accepting their awards. Congratulations guys!

The Big Picture Film & Video Arts is honored to have created two $3,000 video production scholarships through the San Francisco chapter of the National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences to be awarded to one outstanding undergraduate student and one outstanding graduate student.
These scholarships have been created in the names of Jerry Jensen and Steve Davies. Two colleagues of George Lang, with whom he worked at KGO-TV with for many years.
George says, “Jerry was a mentor to me from the time I was 20 years old and helped me with my career throughout his life. Steve Davis and I worked closely together through the tumultuous 80s and all the major news stories that Steve was assigned to. There was no better journalist and one of few who fought for principles.”

Prostate Blues – Telly Award Winner 2008
Posted by TheBigPicture in Awards, Philanthropic on July 14, 2008
We started out just doing a favor for our friend, Fred Grange, and we ended up winning the 2008 Telly Award for “Prostate Blues” produced by in-house producer Claudia Lang.
Produced for the Marin General Prostate Cancer Support Group, the purpose of the video is to raise awareness of both the importance of regular and early screening for men of a certain ago, and also the importance of support groups for those with prostate cancer. We tried to get these messages across while still highlighting the human element which is what it is all about at the end of the day.
