Tuesday 1st November




On Tuesday 1st November our lesson was in the TV studio, and we had some practice runs. The first time we had our lesson in the TV studio it was not practical but on this day it was the first time our lesson in the TV studio was practical. To  start off  the class was split into two groups so one halve of the class was  learning how to use the camera's and the other halve of the class was in the control room learning how to vision mixer , sound and the lights. After a while we had to swap positions.


After learning how to adapt by using the camera's and sitting in the control room , our class had to come up with a show idea so we could learn how everything works during a live show. At first I was acting as a host on my show  build or break helping Lucy build or break her relationship with Dianni, this went very well. The class worked together well by making this work , they used sounds such as applause and used different type of lightings during different type of situations.


We then swapped roles, I was in the control room with my group and my responsibility was the lights. I had to know when to increase the lighting and when to decrease the lighting. This role really helped me understand how lighting works and how it plays a huge role on these shows.
