Assignments

The first assignment, we looked at emerging forms of live broadcast and were sent out to create a livestream using one of the social media platforms suggested (twitch, periscope, or Facebook). We were in search of capturing a live moment.

 

The second assignment is an introduction to the roles of the live studio. Everyone has a role out of directors, director assistants, camera operators, audio technicians, floor managers, vision mixers and GFX. You are given a script from a tv show and the clip goes for roughly one minute.

 

For the third assignment, you are introduced to the pre-production side of creating a live show, which requires more preparation and includes more roles, such as the props, lighting, writers and producers. With these new roles you are required to come up with a five minute show segment. This assignment allows you to be creative and further develop skills required for live productions.

 

The fourth assignment was to create two full episodes of a live show between twenty-five and thirty minutes long. Like in the previous assignment, you are to be creative in the pre-production stage to create an interesting show about whatever you like. More roles are introduced such as EVS, marketing/social media, and audio cue.

Midnight Snack

As a final assignment for Ready Camera One, you will write, produce and broadcast an actual  TV show. It can be anything you decide: a quiz show, a play, a performance, etc. This semester, we aired a late night show called “Midnight Snack”.

This show was entirely written and produced by RMIT students, and filmed across two professional studios. The students could try themselves as writers, producers, directors, director assistants, camera operators, lighting and audio technicians, floor managers, vision mixers, GFX and EVS operators, marketers, actors and more. Working on such a big and significant production was an amazing experience and a great opportunity to develop many vital skills such as problem-solving, performing under pressure, and teamwork. Not to mention, it provides you with an access to professional equipment: we had a chance to learn to operate the EVS, collaborate in a multi-camera studio, and even use the green screen technology. Get a glimpse of exciting life behind the scenes below:
