Six productions by Ballard High School video students have been honored with student Emmy nominations at the regional level.

The awards are a project of the National Association of Television Arts & Sciences and honor the best in student television production. The regional awards celebrate the most outstanding productions from five northwest states: Oregon, Washington, Idaho, Montana and Alaska.

"The Crumb" by Emily Deering, Karli Lafferty, Sarah Maloney and Taylor Rubright; "Dead End" by Emma Hutchison, Kaila Lafferty, Karli Lafferty and Kirsten Zeller; "Manimal" by Levi Friedman, Matt Law-Phipps, Esther Magasis and Ryan Zemke; and "Reflection" by Sheridan Koehler and Blair Scott were nominated in the Dramatic Presentation category.

"Loose Change" (produced for Real Change) by Emma Hutchison, Georgia Peck and Alex Scheller and "Swine Flu Apocalypse" (produced for the Teen Health Center) by John Christensen, Conner Jarvie and Matt Law-Phipps were nominated in the Public Service Announcement category.

This is the fourth year in a row that Ballard High School Video Production Program students have been nominated. Last year, they received five nominations and won student Emmy awards in the Public Affairs and Technical Achievement categories.

The winners will be announced at the 47th Annual Northwest Regional Emmy Awards on June 5.

BHS video students will present new works completed this semester at 7 p.m. on June 11 at the Ballard High School auditorium. Admission is free, but there is a suggested donation of $5. For more information on the Ballard High School Video Production Program, visit www.bhsvideo.blogspot.com.
