Working on Live TV

[AdventuresOWUM]

Hey everyone,
Just thought I would share with you all my experience from last night.
As a screen media student I have been working with cameras and radio gear as part of my course. Last night was my first night of work experience and I was actually in control of one of the cameras used during a live TV show.
If anyone form Australia is on here and can access channel 31 on their, check out the show 1700. It was so much fun working there and I will be getting to go back every Thursday night.
They work under the SYN network (student youth network) and allow practical experience for anyone under 25.
I will be posting regularly my experience on the show for anyone who is interested and for anyone who would like to talk about the behind the scenes aspect of a live television show.

Overall I had a great time and was welcomed by a friendly crew. Each week we swap roles which is a good way to learn.
I had so much fun and it was a great environment for me to learn about the technical side of television and actually get to help out with a show.
If anyone ever gets the opportunity to work on a TV show for experience, I say take it, because you will learn so much and come out with a whole new set of skills.

That's awesome that you were able to have that experience! If only everyone could be in the shoes of their idols some day, or even a job where it relates to what they want to do in life. Everything we do definitely adds up for the future ^^

Definitely! Getting to experience all these different things which could lead to a job really make life interesting, or being able to learn different areas in the field.
One thing I do wish to with the experiences and knowledge I gain from this is share my new skills and knowledge with other people who are working in video/youtube/media.

If anyone has questions which they wish to ask me about what I am learning while working in the media as part of my course I am more than happy to help out and discuss it all

Well, I'm always interested how people retain viewerships. Do you have any vague tips that might apply to youtube in general, that relates to running a show? I love tips that I can possibly incorporate for the future.

I'm glad that you were able to experience something fun, and to get some help out of it as well ^^
