VERNACULAR MEDIA SERVICES
What is vernacular media?
It is media (videotape, audio cassettes,
music, drama, filmstrips, and flip charts) produced in the heart language
(mother tongue) of the intended audience. SIL workers use vernacular media
to encourage literacy and scripture use in their translation projects. One
of the most dynamic effects of media is that it allows us to reach the millions
of people who can not read, and who may never learn to read, the life changing
Word of God.
As an example - The Scripture in Use Media Department of Papua New Guinea
began in 1994. They have dubbed several languages onto Scripture video including
Luke, Genesis, and the Jesus film. Recently Jim and Diana Parker, translators
for the Qaqet language, wrote of the astounding responses to the Luke video
showings. "The film gave great confidence in assuring people that their
language could be read. It really sparked a motivation to literacy I have
never experienced before in this area. Men came the next morning, interrupting
their normal work routine so they could purchase a New Testament and get started
in reading."
VMS offers specialized training and continuing support to non-print media
personnel, helping maximize the production and use of media in local language
projects with SIL and other agencies. Vernacular Media Specialists currently
serve in more than 15 countries.
Vernacular Media Services offers an ideal opportunity for singles and couples
who want to be involved directly with language programs and who enjoy traveling.
Vernacular media specialists are serving in a number of countries as well
as at the JAARS Center. Additional Career Members or Short Term Assistants
(STAs) are currently needed on all continents.
Following training, orientation, and partnership development, STAs would take
a two-year assignment, Career members, a long term one. He or she would be
primarily involved in working with translators, literacy specialists, and
local leaders to produce media tools in the vernacular languages.
Skills Needed:
Mechanical aptitude and interpersonal relational skills are a must.
Previous training or experience in media related fields, literacy, linguistics,
or public relations is desirable, but not required.
In addition to Quest and ICC, VMS personnel must attend the following:
JAARS Management Training (one week)
JAARS Vernacular Media Service Training (12 weeks) - Answers the questions
. . . How does media fit into a language program? How to interact with teams
and entities for planning media in language programs. Provides hands on training
in all technical aspects of recording, productions, and maintenance of audio
and video tapes, players, recording equipment, computer editing, duplicators,
etc.
For more information and applications, call 1 (800) 890-0628 and ask for Vernacular
Media Services.
