SkyWire Awards 2019

Courtesy of SkySoft

The end of the year is fast approaching, which means it’s time for SkySoft’s 2nd Annual
SkyWire Awards, an opportunity to look back at the past year of SkySoft and acknowledge
the hard work, talent, and dedication of our cast and crew.

Before we get into the nominees, there is another important announcement in regards to the
voting procedures. This year, because Season 2 of 365 was entered into the vault early,
voting is closed off to the public, which means the fan award segment will also not be featured.
Additionally, moving forward there will no longer be a fan award segment, and all winners will
be chosen by an unbiased third party, just like a majority of the winners were decided last year.

For a reminder of the rules and categories (how and why nominees are selected, how and why
winners are chosen, and more information), please consult our earlier post explaining the SkyWire
awards here: https://skysoftentertainment.blogspot.com/2018/12/skywire-awards-what-is-it.html

SkySoft Premium Explained!

by Jen Sanchez © SkySoft Entertainment LLC. Yesterday, SkySoft introduced SkySoft Premium on their site. This was big news for several reasons. SkySoft has released a lot of free content featuring mostly upcoming talent, relying on Monroe Hayden to bring in as many viewers as possible. It was pretty clear that with Hayden’s upcoming departure from SkySoft shows, the company would need more options to bring in more revenue. Beast will be the first real blockbuster to be routed to premium video-on-demand. It’s an economic gamble, but also an acknowledgment of the reality of what will be left of the marketplace after COVID-19, which could be an unprecedented time. It could also be the way of the future; with so many streaming services piling up in bills, buying an exclusive show or film may be a better and affordable option for some people, rather than committing monthly to a service. Now, the hope is that Beast can do for SkySoft Premium what Fox did for three years for SkySoft Stream...

Racism and White Privilege: America's Most Enduring and Lethal Disease

by Daniel Andrade Courtesy of the Library of Congress For over 400 years, since before the United States gained its independence, this country has suffered from a toxic disease that it has never been able to cure itself of. It may not be the same type of poison that it started off as, but it has evolved and persisted and continues to be just as dangerous today. America has a problem, and that problem is racism and the white privilege that has allowed this racism to persist as long as it has. What has made this problem much more glaring recently is the tragic death of George Floyd under the knee of former Minneapolis officer Derek Chauvin. While there have unfortunately been too many similar incidents involving police officers or other white men either brutally attacking or killing black men, many of which have also been recorded on camera, this incident was particularly grievous. Many are familiar with the appalling stories of Trayvon Martin , Tamir Rice , Philando ...
