On June 21, 2006 Kyiv saw the first TRC Media Club (Teleradiocourier), attended by 164 Acting Members and Honorable Guests of the Club.

Just as we expected, the TRC Media Club proved to be an ideal format for business and informal communication among media industry professionals and the Club Guests, so the Fireplace hall, Bavarian bar, Winter garden and the Balcony (of the Restaurat complex EC "ACCO International") quickly and easily turned to a sort of sections and groups, where old friends met, new partners got acquainted, "quiet" business negotiations and loud presentations took place, proposals and ideas were voiced, joint plans announced...

The first TRC Media Club was prepared and held with the assistance of:
Sponsor of the first TRC Media Club - ComTel Company, one of the leading system integrators of professional video equipment!

Technical support provided by:

The first to appear at the Media Club were the filming crews of TV channels and television studios: TONIS, TV1 (TRC Zagrava), Ukrainian TV and Radio World Service, Kyivska Rus Television, TV agency Vikna... They say that these people were the first to feel the atmosphere of the Club - that it's nothing like the Supreme Council, you don't have to hurry or push around, this is a different rhythm and there is enough time for communication...

(Read two first chapters from the novel at www.trk-mag.kiev.ua)
Roman also spoke of his literary plans and of his first full-scale fiction film with a working title "Toys of Evil Fate" , which will start filming in July this year.

Screening of documantary about Sergiy Paradzhanov "A DANGEROUSLY FREE PERSON" (directed by Roman Shirman). An important point: after the screening, loud ovations and public compliments the viewers actively asked: where can this film be purchased for a private video collection? And really, WHERE?

Presentation "PLASM UNITIZED VIDEO WALLS.INFINITE TECHNOLOGY"
(Digital Device Ukraine Company)

After viewing the video clip about the novel of Roman Shirman, fragments of demo-video catalogue of competitive works of All-Ukrainian Television Festival "Discover Ukraine!" (2005), promotion clips of TV News Channel "24", and video clips of People's artist of Ukraine Anatoliy MATVIYCHUK on the plasma unitized video wall, this new product attracted attention not only TV professionals and cinematographers, advertisers, and businessmen, but also journalists and publishers... Perspective innovation!


"I would like to express my gratitude to Digital Device Ukraine Company for high quality of image! I saw film "A DANGEROUSLY FREE PERSON" on the screens of many festivals in different countries of the world. But today it is the first time I see such a high quality of equipment. Thank you very much! It is the real holiday for producer."
Roman Shirman, film director, Honoured worker of arts of Ukraine, producer

Sensation!
Contrary to absolute skepticism of cinematographers and publishers who know well a legendary artist and animator Radna Pylypovych SAKHALTUEV (and his iron rule to be not on get-togethers, but in a workshop), Honoured artist of Ukraine, author-artist of famous cartoons ("Island of treasures", "Doctor Aybolit'", " Captain Vrungel's Adventures "), magazine "Pepper", author of illustrations to a film "A Dangerously Free Person" and to the novel of "Now I Will Love You" RADNA SAKHALTUEV WAS PRESENT IN MEDIA CLUB "TRK"!!!
He even took the floor on artistic meeting with Roman Shirman and said that it was a pleasure for him to work over the first book of trilogy of novels. And he is waiting for its continuance.

Among other things Radna SAKHALTUEV has already given to the publisher the picture for the badge "Now I Will Love You"! Now he is busy with preparing for personal exhibition within the frames of autumn Media Forum-2006. And together with "Teleradiocourier" he is also making preparations for new publishing projects…

Diplomas "For disclosing new names in native literature to readers"!
"Teleradiocourier" Company and Ukrainian Media Union acclaimed about awarding the first partners of publishing project "Now I Will Love You" - bookshops "Znannya", "Syajvo", "Naukova dumka", "K. S.", "Elga-N" with diplomas "For disclosing new names in native literature to readers" …

Invitation to artistic meetings
Director of Kiyv library collector Taisa Vasylivna KLYASHTORNA extended an official invitation to Roman Shirman and publisher "Teleradiocourier" to meeting with readers at the library collector! (In autumn after shooting the film "Toys of Evil Fate".)

Deputy Editor of the newspaper "Chernigovskaya nedelya" Lydmyla Vasylivna PARHOMENKO invited the author and publisher to visit Chernigiv and to meet with colleagues and readers... (In autumn...)

TV and Radio companies which decided to tell about the book "Now I Will Love You" to their audience: "TONIS", "TV1", World Service "UTR", "Kievska Rus Television", Municipal TV and Radio company "Chernivtsi", Chornomorska TV and Radio company (Simpheropol), Radio "Blysk" (Chernivtsi), Radio "Europe+Donbas" and "Autoradio" (Donetsk)...

Anatoliy MATVIYCHUK, Ivan Franko National Award Winner, Andriy Malyshko Literature Award Winner, poet, composer, singer, journalist, People's artist of Ukraine:
" I was reading a novel and thought: the roman belongs to a kind of literature which is read fast, in trolley-buses, in a subway, in cars and it will enjoy popularity among so-called general (I don't know who made him "general") - reader!"



Meanwhile behind the scenes of the Club the main subject of lively discussion was the idea of holding the Second Kyiv International Media Forum (October 2006) as a ROUND TRIP DOWN THE DNIPRO (for example, Kyiv-Kaniv-Kyiv). The working schedule of Media Forum includes: Conference "Modern media market trends". Second conference "Technical decisions and technologies for TV & Radio industry". o DAYS of CABLE TELEVISION, including: Conference "Progress of technologies of delivery of the programs and new business-models of activity of providers of program service"; Training seminar for lawyers and chief accountants: "Features of economic and legal activity of providers of program service" o Exhibition of professional technical equipment for media industry. o Market of audio and visual (content) products for television, radio, cable TV o Sectoral seminars, presentations, master classes…

YOUR OPINION ON AUTUMN ROUND TRIP DOWN THE DNIPRO IS SIGNIFICANT!

and Dmytro OMELYANYUK ( ComTel Company)

AND THERE WERE QUESTIONS ABOUT THE TELEVISION FESTIVAL "DISCOVER UKRAINE!"! WHAT KIND OF EVENT SHOULD IT BE IN FUTURE? AND PROPERLY SPEAKING, WHO HAS AN INTENTION TO BE A SPONSOR TO A NON-PROFIT TELEVISION FESTIVAL?ComTel Company), Contest of Studio TV Works, created by using professional studio light, lighting technologies and design.(founder - "Zinteco"), Award "For the most successful combination of creative skill and special technique" (founder and sponsor of prizes - "Di-REX" Company)…

May be, there is no use to hope for "free lunch"? Should those who want to DISCOVER UKRAINE and THEMSELVES put up money for Television Festival (if our native TV experts really need it) according to their possibilities, including TV companies and studios-producers? In that case the future will offer more serious prospects for THEMATIC contests, which are already announced in program-2006 ("Business information" o "Culture of Ukraine" o "Our history" o "Extraordinary contemporary" o "Famous names of Ukraine" o "Agrarian Ukraine" o "Industrial Ukraine" o "Tourist Ukraine"...). While holding financial negotiations with all prospective sponsors, organizers of Television Festival "Discover Ukraine!"-2006 admit any variant of the march of future events right up to changing the majority of announced Festival formats …

Friends make presidents' acquaintance

At last president of Forum of Publishers Oleksandra KOVAL and president of "Teleradiocourier" Company and president of Organizing Committee of Annual Kyiv International TV & Radio Fair Vasyl YATSURA got acquainted. It occurred that there were common friends (for example, Mykhailo Veysberg!), common plans: Teleradiocourier will take part in Forum of Publishers (Lviv, September) Forum of Publishers is invited to Media Forum-2006 (Kyiv, October)…
(All the rest - is not for printing. It a joke...:-)))

Director General of "NESATEC-UKRAINE" Company Valeriy KURIANINOV suggests putting into practice personal certificates for Acting Members of Media Club "TRK"…
