I am Robbi Moore, the Orbit Television student program director.  I was inspired by fellow WMCO Program Director, Brice Lillibridge, to write about my experience in Orbit Media.

Robbi Moore

Seeing as I am in my senior year at Muskingum University, I decided to take this time to reflect on my experience in Orbit Media and how it has benefited me as a student as well as how it has prepared me for the world post-college.

I am in charge of producing content on our cable channel 1020 as well as our YouTube channel.  Orbit Media is student driven so the videos you see from Orbit Media are created by students for the campus community as well as the Village of New Concord. We range from interviews, concerts on campus, sports games, and narrative filming. 

This position has prepared me for what I what I want to pursue in the future. I want to direct and produce films in my post-college career.

Filmmaking is something that has always fascinated me and I am grateful that Orbit TV has provided me with the opportunity to work in this area. I have learned directing, editing, set design, and audio all from being part of Orbit Media. 

I joined Orbit Media the spring semester of my sophomore year and it was one of the best decisions I ever made.

OAC revises spectator protocols

FacebooktwitteryoutubeThe Ohio Athletic Conference (OAC) has updated its COVID-19 protocols for the spring season.

Effective March 8, home teams are allowed two admissions for each student-athlete and coach. The visiting team will get two tickets per student-athlete and coach, as well, under “Travel Squad Limits.”

Total admissions cannot surpass 30 percent of the total spectator capacity for the facility.

Bands and cheerleaders are allowed to perform at home events only, at the discretion of each university, and members of band and cheer get two admissions per dressed participant, as long capacity doesn’t exceed 30 percent.

Home schools can set their own facility limits without exceeding 30 percent capacity and can reduce the number of spectators from the visiting team.

Admission into each OAC athletic event will be authorized using a pass list at the entry gate.

No additional family members, fans, or students are allowed beyond those authorized on the pass list.

Essential personnel can be on-location for each game along with approved spectators. Essential personnel includes student-athletes, coaches, administrators, sports information directors, athletic trainers, officials, video, live-streaming, a single photographer, and media. All can be allowed under capacity guidelines.

Anyone attending athletic events will be required to wear masks and follow social distancing guidelines.

The OAC may adjust any or all of these protocols at any time if conditions change.
