Week 4

This week we moved onto producing a News Programme. We had to insert 8 VT’s with a running transcript throughout (no room for ad-lib). I decided to act as a camera operator for one of the takes and went onto vision mixing for another.
On camera I had to crab left and zoom in at the same time for the opening of the programme, something which was very stressful as you had to ensure that it was slick and professional. This was praised by Matt afterwards, which helped seal my want for Camera Operator to be my other assessed role. 

I then tried out Vision Mixing. Having this be my first time doing so, it was quite stressful as I had a director who left me to do the work assuming I knew which shots to put in where after the VT’s. This was difficult as I had never done this role before, however after a rehearsal run I was able to know what I was doing and only made one minor slip up in the recorded take by accidentally changing a camera shot too quickly.
