19:30 - The Role of Broadcasters in SA – Business as usual? Chaired

by Prof. viola milton, UNISA

Mini-INPUT, Johannesburg28. & 29.09.2018

Panel Discussion Background: The Role of Broadcasters in SA – Business as usual?Once again, the Broadcasting landscape in South Africa is changing and once again, the possibilities (and responsibilities) of the broadcasting industry seems to be malleable. The SABC is re-evaluating processes, staffing, editorial guidelines and the independents are reacting to the appearance of new platforms, making the business of broadcasting more democratic and more direct. New channels are born and putting new content on air is much easier than before. The idea of LSM’s have been put to rest, to accommodate SEMs. How do we create a common goal to keep our audiences entertained, informed, educated and empowered?

This panel would like to open a communication channel between content makers and broadcasting professionals to see whether there are issues currently at hand that need to be re-thought. Are the contractual Intellectual Property clauses still valid? How do we all re-navigate the impact of the proposed new Copyright Amendment Act? Will the fragmented audiences perspective allow us to make more feasible productions in future?
