Dear NDSA,
Please see the enclosed ballot. It should replace the ballot sent Friday which contained the following error: Eugene Mopsik represents the American Society of Media Photographers (ASMP) NOT AMPAS (American Motion Picture Arts & Sciences). This will be corrected on the ballot as soon as possible.
Best,
Abbey Potter

Information about the Coordinating Committee The Coordinating Committee is dedicated to the advancement of Alliance activities and furthering communication within the Alliance.
The Coordinating Committee works with the Working Groups to articulate a long-term, strategic vision for the Alliance. The Committee assists the Alliance Members in evaluating the effectiveness of the Working Groups and eliminating unnecessary duplication of effort between the Working Groups. Participants in the Coordinating Committee will act as liaison with one or more of the Working Groups. The Coordinating Committee will recommend for the creation of new Working Groups or to disband Working Groups that are no longer actively serving the needs of the Alliance.
The Coordinating Committee is responsible for updating eligibility standards for membership in the Alliance as necessary. Coordinating Committee members may be nominated by Participants in the Alliance or may self nominate. Coordinating Committee members are elected by a simple majority of all votes cast over an open voting period, typically two weeks. The number of Coordinating Committee members shall be no more than nine (9). Coordinating Committee members shall serve in staggered appointments of one, two or three years through December 31, 2013, or their resignation.
The Coordinating Committee members should represent the various communities that make up the NDSA.
The Program Representative or a designated proxy of each member organization of the NDSA may vote for up to 9 (nine) Coordinating Committee members.
Thank you all.
Best regards,
Michelle
