Additional information:
I've done work experience in the factual department in BBC London. My role was in the development office. This mainly entailed office runner duties and research, including writing emails and making phone-calls to potential contributors or information sources. I also learnt how to set up and operate tripods, radio mics, and Canon XF-305s and set them up for online broadcast. My largest single responsibility was being tasked with some of the preliminary research and fact-finding for what would eventually become the comic relief challenge Through Hell and High Water. I also spent two days on a location test-shoot as a runner to a freelance producer and later found employment from the BBC as a day runner on the Southwell episode of Flog It!
I also volunteered for the Students' Union Tv society. During my time here I wrote, directed and produced a comedy short film (available on request, served as a runner on a dating programme and as a producer and writer for a sitcom. This sitcom was started by someone else and I wrote several follow up episodes based on her creation. These were never made due to issues with the original cast.
