U1B Ravensbourne

On Arrival we was briefed on what was going to happen. We was than split into 4 groups to cover all areas of production. Then we would make a TV news show, after we would all watch it back. After this there would be a question and answer session from the course leader about was was on offer and how to apply.

I was in the studio group and assign the role of vision mixer (live editing). The idea of the day was to give an insight into a day of a Ravensbourne student.

However due to equipment failing, news items could not be filmed until later in the day. When it came to the live news show there was no pre recorded features and the interview had to go first so it was filmed back to front with no audio for example headline audio.

Due to delays in the production this took all day and there was no de-brief or anything about the courses. But it was said if you wanted to get on a similar course you would need to be extra media actives outside of college.

For the arts award this was not a brilliant view in career and training but did give an insight onto the tv production course.
