Emmy Award

An Emmy Award, or simply Emmy, recognizes excellence in the television industry, and corresponds to the Academy Award (for film), the Tony Award (for theatre), and the Grammy Award (for music).

Because Emmy Awards are given in various sectors of the American television industry, they are presented in different annual ceremonies held throughout the year. The two events that receive the most media coverage are the Primetime Emmys and the Daytime Emmys, which recognize outstanding work in American primetime and daytime entertainment programming, respectively. Other notable Emmy Award ceremonies are those honoring national sports programming, national news and documentary shows, national business and financial reporting, and technological and engineering achievements in television, including the Primetime Engineering Emmy Awards. Regional Emmy Awards are also presented throughout the country at various times through the year, recognizing excellence in local and statewide television. In addition, International Emmys are awarded for excellence in TV programming produced and initially aired outside the United States.

Saltwater (2012 film)

Saltwater is a 2012 film directed by Charlie Vaugn. It was written, produced by Ronnie Kerr, who also acted in the film. It was funded by Kickstarter. The executive producer was Michael Shoel and line producer was Creep Creepersin.

Saltwater premiered on July 14, 2012 at the 18th Annual Philadelphia QFest. Qfest is the east coast's largest LGBT film festival and the third largest of its kind in the nation. Saltwater played to a sold-out crowd in the Ritz Bourse theater. It also played to a near, sold-out crowd the next day at the Ritz East.

In 2005, an ex-Marine, who was good-looking, had many friends, including Ronnie, and a boyfriend, committed suicide to the surprise of many, but left no suicide note or explanation. This real-life tragedy inspired Saltwater. Filming took place in various locations in North Hollywood, Sherman Oaks and San Diego.

Former rugby player, now actor, Ian Roberts said, "I chose Saltwater as the first film in which I play a gay character because its content is something that’s very personal to me. It spoke to me in a way no other script has."

Saltwater (Chicane song)

"Saltwater" is a song by Chicane featuring the vocals of Irish singer Máire Brennan. The track uses parts of Clannad's 1982 hit "Theme From Harry's Game" with both re-recorded and newly written lyrics.
