BBC Newcastle trip

We went to BBC Newcastle and saw the news production room and the radio student

 In this pic we saw Collin explain about how the mic work the air conditioning needed because the lamps get so hot an make so much heat



The desk he worked at has a foot pedal for the autocue and he said he can hear lots of people in his ear piece


Here is the editing suite where videos and camera feeds are edited and controlled


here are the lights for the news room /studio


Myself Dan Tidy and Emma Jackson made a video of us using an autocue and a I presented sport Dan presented news and Emma presented the weather using greenscreen

I learned that the weather portion of the news isn't scripted I think this gives you the freedom to be creative but might be a bit difficult under pressure

I think it could be difficult working at the BBC because of the long hours and there isnt a guarantee you would be able to get a good paying jobs you have to start off doing odd jobs first at least that is what we were told

I thought the visit went quick and was quite interesting I thought the lighting setup and the radio studio was really cool
