Broadcast Technology

Colour Science Research

A research essay into developments in colour gamut and dynamic range. The actual research for the project encompassed every stage of the production process from filming environment to screen viewing distance, though due to word limit restrictions the essay focused specifically on screen technology.

Advanced Media Technology

A bespoke module covering various elements of broadcast technology including camera setup, compression, video engineering and file delivery. In the exam for this module I achieved a score of 96%.

Tone Radio

Through my role as Head of Events I provided on the ground support for Outside Broadcasts including with the technical setup of the broadcasting equipment. I utilised this knowledge to produce a instructional video on its setup at a later date.

Glastonbury Festival

I worked as part of a team of students that made up the secondary camera crew on the John Peel Stage, supporting the main BBC crew. This included camera operation, including operating the on-stage roaming camera for ‘The Hoosiers’, cable bashing, vision engineering, vision mixing and directing the camera team for Darlia’s set; ensuring multiple angles were covered for the climactic guitar smash I had been tipped off about.

We also assisted with the setup and striking of AV equipment including the big screens at the sides of the stage and the giant video wall for MGMT’s set.
