SoMedia Networks is building Broadband Network Three (BBN3) websites in major cities across North America and then internationally to provide a platform & marketplace for a new class of user-generated video creators - the near-professional content producer.

The near-professional video journalism creator is from a new burgeoning class - born of the User Generated Video revolution that shows no sign of ending soon. SoMedia is leveraging the immense scale & power of this revolution with the goal of becoming the dominant global platform & marketplace for quality controlled user produced video journalism.

BBN3 is a city-by-city network of young, hip Video Journalists (VJs) producing cool, high-quality video journalism content.

Whether they're YouTube grads or film school grads BBN3 is all about creating quality video journalism that matters and gets noticed. The unique BBN3 VJ platform gives budding video journalists a chance to learn & grow, while also giving film school grads, documentary filmmakers, and experienced video producers a way to access a dynamic pool of video journalism opportunities - from video journalism for the web, to local TV news broadcasters and commissioned brand assignments.

Our Video Journalism Program is designed to offer young people who know how to shoot video and edit a home to produce video journalism content, build their careers, and make money.

New members start out as VJ1s where they get access to the entire BBN3 network, the VJ community, and support from assignment desk editors. VJs have the ability to work their way up to the VJ3 level where they have the opportunity to produce content for SoMedia's television shows, and take commissioned assignments from our business clients. The VJ4 level is for Editors/Managers who really know what they are doing and as a result help run the Network..

The BBN3 VJ platform employs multiple levels of processes & embedded systems to safeguard the quality & integrity of the VJ content produced through its network - with extensive and robust risk mitigation features and quality control systems designed to offer safe, reliable and low cost content solutions to different businesses including broadcasters and news organizations.
