donate the ROBERT TRACHINGER AWARD FOR EXCELLENT YOUNG MEDIA
PROFESSIONALS in honor of media pioneer Robert Trachinger - for his
professional and humanistic values - to young international media
artists and our current new world of media professionals. Robert
Trachinger stands for responsibility and sensitivity to the human
condition: the artistic and managerial courage to tell today's
stories well. The award is valued EUR 10.000,-. About Robert
Trachinger (born 1923, New York, NY): Robert Trachinger's
professional life combined the corporate world and academia. He is
Professor Emeritus of UCLA and a Fulbright scholar. From 1968 to 1998
he taught at UCLA's School of Theater, Film and Television, with
emphasis on humanistic leadership, ethics, creative media skills,
production competence, and the remarkable art of storytelling. His
original career was in television. He retired in 1985 as Vice
President and General Manager of ABC-TV in Hollywood, California. A
television pioneer, Robert Trachinger had joined WTMJ-TV,
Milwaukee/Wisconsin, in 1948 as cameraman and video operations
engineer. In 1950, the American Broadcasting Company in Hollywood
hired him as cameraman evolving into a 35-year tenure. He was
Technical Director on many of the network's first coast-to-coast
shows. When promoted to Manager of Broadcast Engineering in 1958, he
worked side by side with Roone Arledge, President of ABC-TV Sports,
on the evolution and development of innovative concepts revolutionary
for television sports production. In 1964, he was made Director of
Program Development and Operations at ABC Sports in New York. In that
capacity, he was involved in the production, development, and design
of many shows, including the "American Sportsman". He produced and
supervised shows in Kenya, India, France, Russia, and throughout the
United States. Robert Trachinger is best known in engineering circles
for initiating the original concept and experimental work resulting
in the first successful black-and-white slow motion videotape. He was
responsible for the development of the first broadcast quality
hand-held cameras which were the forerunners of the electronic news
gathering (ENG) cameras. The underwater electronic camera was
developed in his home swimming pool. All of these creative
innovations were exclusive to ABC-TV for years and contributed
greatly to ABC Sports' foremost position. The National Association of
Broadcasters honored him for his work on the development of
videotape. 1966 saw him promoted to Executive Producer for ABC's
owned television station in Los Angeles. He won two EMMY AWARDS for
documentaries and was recognized for "Decision to Die" which exposed
and explored the high rate of suicide among American adolescents - a
subject which had been unmentionable in TV for 20 years. UCLA invited
him to a symposium on the production of his documentaries which grew
into the avocation of teaching. This led to his parallel academic
career spanning over 30 years at UCLA. In 1971, UCLA recruited him
for a year to reorganize its Media Center. He then returned to ABC-TV
and maintained his professional relationship with the university.
Robert Trachinger was promoted to Vice President of ABC-Television in
1978. In 1980, he was assigned the additional duties of Executive in
charge of Broadcast Operations and Engineering for the 1984 Summer
Olympics in Los Angeles. Upon retiring from ABC-TV after 35 years,
Robert Trachinger received a one year Fulbright-Award as Senior
Professor at Gutenberg University, Institut fuer Publizistik,
Mainz/Germany, in 1985-86. Professor Elisabeth Noelle-Neumann and
Professor Hans-Mathias Kepplinger were hosts. Teaching German
students in English to create television productions was an
eye-opening cross-cultural enrichment. During the Fulbright year, he
followed invitations to teach at the Sorbonne in Paris and Tel Aviv
University. Back in the USA, he occasionally taught at the College of
Santa Fe, New Mexico, where he also fostered a partnership between
academia and the corporate world. Trained as a para-professional in
the field of psychology, Robert Trachinger has worked with young
people in Upward Bound programs and facilitated encounter groups for
disadvantaged youths. After moving from Los Angeles to San Diego in
1989, he lectured at the University of California San Diego, and
became a counselor for caregivers of Alzheimers patients. Counseling
young people is an ongoing avocation. On Crystal Cruise ships, he
turned storyteller about the hilarious early days of live television.
A "Media Legend" award was bestowed on him in 1997. In the new
millenium, Robert Trachinger lives with is wife Helga in Rancho Santa
Fe, California. He has a son Set in Boulder, Colorado. His daughter
Mia Trachinger, a UCLA graduate, is a script writer and filmmaker and
lives with her husband Jason Brush and daughter Lotte in Los Angeles.
