I think the bbc trip went well for me, even though I was
really nervous before it happened that I would screw up big time luckily that
never happened although I did mess up a few times, I've learnt a lesson from
that to be more careful. I was actually dreading the trip I only decided to go
because amber wanted me to and I'm glad I did go it was a brilliant opportunity
to gain some experience with cameras and besides that it was fun.
What went well for me was when we were actually filming I somehow
managed to hear what shots I needed to get through the either very loud or very
quiet headphone thing I had on which was annoying me, I ignored it because in
the middle of a recording was not the time to start complaining. Also in the
end I sussed out which way to zoom in and done it almost perfectly during the
recording.
What I would have improved on was the focus part on the camera
was confusing me I would have asked more questions on the parts I was stuck on
instead of trying to solve everything on my own, that’s probably the main
reason I kept messing up. I think if I’d known how fun the day was going to be I
would have been less shy at the start about sharing ideas.
What I liked about the day was that we got to work in a cool
studio and work real cameras, it’s not every day you get to go to a professional
studio and practice recording on cameras.
What I didn’t like on the day was the walk to the studio,
especially how the weather was anyway it luckily wasn’t raining but it was wet
and cold. Also we had to stand up to work the camera, my legs were hurting when
we finished and then we had to walk back to Hewett with almost no sit down time
before we went.
I learnt a lot on the day about how the cameras work, how
they switch cameras, how the camera people know what shots to get and I also
got to meet some new people. I've seen behind the scenes in the bbc on TV
before but it was a lot more interesting being there in person rather than
sitting on the sofa eating crisps watching some guy saying how this and that
works.
