Supporting for the last time.

6th February 2015

Today is the teams last chance to support another group, the show being Eye on Portsmouth. Today, I was doing a dual role of floor-managing and camera operating, upstairs in the CCI Studio.

After setting up my talk-back and turning the lights and camera on in the studio, I took directions from the show's director on the framing of both cameras, which would be static throughout the show, so once in place, my role would be strictly floor-managing. Focused, in-frame and the iris set to 4, the cameras were ready.

The live show went well and I feel my role of floor-manager was perfect. I managed to get the presenter to stick to timings, camera changes and even made a friend in the process. All in all, I now feel that I could take on a job as a floor-manager in a TV studio and do it to a professional standard for any broadcasting company.
