City News (4th March 2022)

Ukraine, sustainability in London, and more to come in the programme.

I was this week’s director, which meant my responsibilities included: being in charge of ensuring the show goes to air, working with the lecturers in the gallery to run the operating board (Tricaster vision mixer), blocking the show prior to airtime to determine order of camera shots, graphics, and video outputs, and troubleshooting any technical issues that arise while running the operating board

Storm Eunice, Ukraine, cost of living, and more to come in the programme.

I was this programme’s outtake editor, with my responsibilities including:

  • Before the programme make sure all jingles, music and production elements are loaded correctly into Burli or the playout system 
  • Liaise with the live and beat reporters on how their pieces will work 
  • Work with the assistant/desk producer on making the openers and teasers/promos 
  • During the show operate Burli and liaise with the desk producer to make sure the show finishes on time at each junction

I did well to drive the desk, making sure the levels were consistent through the show, cuing presenters, and cutting the programme up with jingle stings. I also helped with the Fashion Week and COVID sections, editing the copies for them, and editing audio for parts of their packages.
