* NEW OPPORTUNITY: 2011 Transom Donor Fund *
A couple of months ago, we asked for support and many of you sent in donations. Thank you. Transom operates on a thin budget, but we've always offered payment for the Shows we feature. Now, we find ourselves liking this idea: We'll send these donations back out there to the people making work. We've decided to pay more for the next few Shows (still public radio scale, but a good rate for a website), hoping to help some talented producers finish their pet projects and give them a first home.
Of course, we encourage (and will help) you to place those pieces in a broadcast setting after they premiere on Transom. We want to assist you on your way. If you've just finished something great or need help finishing it, get in touch.
As always, we're looking for Shows from talented emerging producers and from established producers trying something new. We want work that pushes at the boundaries of what's on public radio. Please send us finished pieces or pitches no later than March 31st. Selected pieces will be featured throughout the spring and into the summer, and maybe longer, if we can find more support. More details on sending your work to Transom are here:
