Winners of the Rocky Mountain Emmys are automatically entered into the next level of the competition at the national level, competing against 18 other NATAS chapters.
Peoria Unified’s film & TV students participate yearly in the Rocky Mountain Emmy Student Production Awards by producing creative works during their classes and submitting them for nominations.
Students may also elect to participate in the Peoria Student Broadcasting Network which covers athletics, performing arts showcases, morning announcements and even produces commercials. PSBN serves as an internship-level class for film & TV students and provides PSBN learners with professional techniques and industry-caliber expertise, nurturing their aspirations for a future in the film, TV, and broadcasting sector. This encompasses high-quality programming such as sports broadcasts, performing arts showcases, commercials, and immersive glimpses into vibrant student life.
Peoria Unified students ultimately work their way toward earning the distinguished Adobe Certified Associate Certification, propelling them toward success in post-secondary opportunities. With this certification and even a Rocky Mountain Emmy Student Production Award, Peoria Unified students are well on their way to paving a career in film & TV.
