1. NTD TV

New Tang Dynasty Television (NTD TV) is a worldwide television broadcaster based in New York City founded in 2001 and located at 229 W 28th St, New York, NY 10001. The television company covers topics that are censored in Mainland China, such as human rights. In addition, the further goal is to restore and promote traditional Chinese culture and to facilitate mutual understanding between the East and West. They are now forming up small departments that onset on the social platform called Facebook.

I am interning in the department called NTD Taste Life. A small department set up in the headquarters building, with three to five members including me. The task is to upload two to three homemade original food videos every week. Each video needs to have a duration of more than three minutes in order to insert ads in between, while the video is playing. The more the ads being played by the viewers, the more income we get on our Facebook page. Occasionally we will receive cases from the clients. We use direct product placement with customer brand marks, by using watermarked items in the video of a cooking process and give it a huge close-up to present the items of our clients. Such as an instant noodle package, vinegar bottles, etc.

The above are two articles about the company. The purpose of NTD TV is to spread Chinese traditional culture. The Shen Yun Performing Arts and Shen Yun Symphony mentioned in the article are performances that they appreciate and highly promoted. Experiencing the ancient Chinese history and culture through music and dance is the performance that the Shen Yun Group has always brought to the audience. The respect and positive view of Chinese history and culture link the media and the performance together and bring the best show to the audiences.
