Cooking at Youthfest
25th June 2007
The Cooking Show visited Redcliffe's first ever Youthfest on the weekend. Thanks to all the people who came and said hi! Despite the cold, we had a good time :-) The lucky winner of our CD prize: Dubdoubt's "Sunshine and Scenery" and 26's debut album, "The King Must Die" was Stephen Hapgood. Enjoy the CDs, Stephen.
This was the first year of Youthfest, and the festival featured a long list of great local bands, and headliners The Pages and Take 21. The crowd loved it, and we hope the festival grows and grows. Support original music!
Winners! 3 Antenna Awards
12th June 2007
In a remarkable effort, Brisbane’s The Rock n Roll Cooking Show picked up three awards at this year’s Community Television True Local Antenna Awards at Federation Square in Melbourne on Friday night. The national awards night, hosted by Channel 31 Melbourne, was a rousing success and a great celebration of Australian community television.The event (broadcast live in Melbourne) featured talent from right around the country, live music performances and a host of local TV stars and celebrity presenters, including Peter Garrett, Hamish & Andy and Melbourne Lord Mayor John So.
There were 111 awards nominees across 23 categories, covering everything from Sports to Drama, Harmony and Diversity to News and Current Affairs. The RnR Cooking team is obviously chuffed with the results in our neck of the woods, picking up three awards from five nominations:
• Best Arts Show
• Best Music Show and
• Best Sound
Not too bad for our first season of tele!
The awards were judged by a panel of industry experts from organisations including: AFTRS, Channel Nine, SBS Melbourne, Open Channel, ACMI, National Film and Sound Archive, Film Victoria, Volunteering Australia, Our Community, Multicultural Arts Victoria, Multimedia Victoria, the Victorian Multicultural Foundation and independent production companies.
The competition was pretty stiff, and we missed out in our other nominated categories of Best Editing (winners: The Ugly Stick) and Outstanding Production Achievement (winners: Geraldton on Show). Obviously two other very top shows :-) ! Congrats folks. There’s a full list of winners under “Antennas” on the C31 site.
Channel 31 in Brisbane are planning on broadcasting the event some time soon - we'll keep you posted.
So here’s thanks…
… because no “man” is an island. The Rock n Roll Cooking Show would like to say thank you to everyone who helped us get the show on the road – we know who you are :-)
And special mention to Orange Octopus Productions, all the crew & supporters, Mark Rolski, Channel 31 Brisbane & the community TV broadcasters around Australia, all the musicians who’ve been a part of the show, our sponsors:
• Louise Elliott Design
• KND Web Consultants
• Brisbane Backline
• IVT Productions
our good friends at Brisbane Sound, C31 Melbourne and the Antenna Awards team, and importantly, thanks to everyone who watches the show!
