BBC Review









As you can Davith behind the desk, this table is where they report all of the heavy news and stories. This is where they report all of the heavy stories and news, underneath the table there is a computer with a screen with all of the news thats happened today so they know what they're talking about and all of the times of them and such, there is also a foot peddle to control the speed of the teleprompter that is infront of them, so when they have read enough of whats on the screen they use there foot to control it and it will go down at their own speed.


This is where they broadcast the light news, this is where they broadcast the light stories the one's that arent really as big as the heavy stories and reports. This is just the light stories, the screening behind the tables are really thin so you chave to be careful when you're near them because even the slightest brush past them can damage them.


These are the lights that are lighting up the studio where they do the News. The walls around the studio are sound proof so it lets in no sound to interrupt the broadcast.  There is up to 80 lights around the area lighting it up and they are very hot, they are equal to electric heater.


BBC Newcastle Job Opportunities

There are plenty of jobs at the BBC including

Radio Presenter: Different show needs a different presenter
Tv Presenter: Different show needs a different presenter
News Reporter: For news bulletins if the show is being presented
Journalist: information for the shows or the news
Sales and marketing manager: finding out information for the stations or the shows
System engineer: to fix equipment or any problems that happen

Work conditions vary enormously, depending on the broadcast medium and type of programme involved. For example, the working conditions for a presenter on a small local radio station with a show in the middle of the night will be vastly different from conditions for a high-profile celebrity with a prime-time television show.
Most presenters, particularly those on national radio and television, employ an agent to negotiate working terms and conditions on their behalf.
Starting salaries vary enormously, depending on whether the broadcaster is working full time for a channel/radio station or working freelance, on an ad-hoc basis. Experience is a significant help in negotiating fees upwards. In broadcasting, starting salaries can be as a low as £14,000, rising to £100,000+ with significant experience.

Research on this part of the Arts Award has been covered in more depth in a separate blog. Here is the link:

Summary:

From this research I have found that i might want to look further into other jobs of the industry, seeing , reading and researching about the other types of jobs has intrigued me into possibly wanting to do a different type of job in the Media Industry. For instance, I originally thought that working in Digital Imaging might have been my dream job, but having seen what the work actually entails, I am also becoming interested in video production and editing.
