Campervans

I absolutely love Campervans! And a couple of weeks ago I was lucky enough to film for Morecambe and Wize and campervan restoration company in Morecambe. There work is amazing and not only did I get to gawp of campers all day but I got to play with a Kessler Crane Jib! Here's a picture of Laura filming.

Broadcast Engineer

So i'm currently applying to be an apprentice Broadcast Engineer for the BBC. I'm up a against a lot of very young and passionate people and so I really need to bring my A game to stand a chance against them. I'm really excited about it and although there's things i'll have to learn that i've never looked into before, like PHP, C++, Networking and basic electrics so that I can take equipment apart and put it back together, I'm still super siked! I've been a camera operator and editor for 3 years and even though I've got some great experience, like I said I'm older than the rest of the people applying and so might not stand a chance :( But I'm trying anyways and this blog is so I can keep a record of everything I learn and am doing to get myself a job :D
