So we are beginning
our TV studio lecture and it sounds very exciting. We was first of all briefed
on basically what will be happening up until Christmas in the studio and showed
around. This equipment look far too good for myself to be using but I couldn’t wait
to get involved and hopefully get behind the camera. After this we went to a
lecture room where we looked at the handbook and spoke about the up coming
lectures. We was also put into teams, unfortunately a lot of the team I was put
in didn’t attend the lesson so alex decided to make a new group of people that didn’t
have many people in. I ended up in a group with Ian, Jodie, Kirsty and Stevie.
I was happy enough with my group as these our people I hadn’t worked with
really before only Ian in the first year so I was looking forward to seeing
what these new about media that I didn’t and learning from them. There were
five roles that had to be filled and we was to go away and think of what role
we would like to do in the production.
Producer
The producer is the team leader and performs a variety of
management and coordination roles in bringing together the many elements of a
production. The producer works closely with the presenter in producing a script
for the production. They also generally encourage the team and over see
everything that goes on. On the day of rehearsal and the recording, the
producer is in charge of coordinating the guests, overseeing the content and
also keeping an eye on the presenter. On the day this person will use a camera.
Director
The director is the visualiser and is responsible for
achieving the creative, visual and auditory effects of a production. This
person creates the look and feel of the production, working closely with the
cameras to instruct what they are picturing. They create the shooting script
which is the movement, angles, and shots that the cameras will do throughout
the production.
Floor Manager
The floor manager is the director's lieutenant. They
coordinate and manage everything that happens on the studio floor. They take
control during rehearsal and recording, everyone has to listen to the floor
manager. When they ask for quiet then everyone must be silent. The floor
manager does the countdown to recording, and the carry a lot of responsibility
on the day. On the day this person will use a camera.
Set Designer
The set designer has ultimate responsibility for the overall
aesthetics of the show. They are the visually creative person, who designs
everything that will be seen on camera (except the people!). Everyone will help
this person to create their idea as the set is a big job! On the day this
person will use a camera.
Presenter
The presenter is the talent and will present all the material
in the show. During the music segment this person will have the chance to use a
camera. They are responsible for the content and they work close with the
producer to write a presenters script.
My first glance at the roles and I new I wanted to be the
floor manager, I felt I could work well with my team and would be able to ask
them nicely enough to do stuff and get things into order. Unfortunately another
person in the group wanted to take this role also. So it was left with me and
Kirsty deciding who floor manager was and who was presenter!
