The Circles is an honor society for those who have devoted at least 25 years making significant contributions to our chapter’s television and digital media industry. The Gold Circle is for those with 50+ years working in pursuit of our profession’s highest and most noble goals, primarily within our chapter.

In addition to setting a high standard for work within our industry, Circles inductees are also noted for community service, which may also include service to the broadcasting industry, mentoring upcoming journalists, service to NATAS and general contributions to the community at large.

Nominees may include those in academic, administrative, creative, journalistic, performing or technical roles within the television industry. This milestone is reserved for professionals who haven’t just witnessed change in an industry, they’ve led it. Gold and Silver Circle inductees are nominated by their peers through a selection committee established by NATAS NW.

The Gold & Silver Circle Honors will be held Friday, May 31st, at Fremont Studios in Seattle.

Discounts for Judging

If you judged a minimum of two categories in 2023 you will receive $50 discounts on each entry you are listed as an entrant. This discount applies ONLY to individual(s) who judged, not the entire entry. If you are submitting for multiple entrants and they have suggested they judged, but the fee does not reflect, reach out to northwest@emmyonline.tv. We will confirm.

Judging opportunities come soon! If you are basking in the discounts for this year, be sure you participate in 2024 and build your reserves.
