Program Rehearsal - News Package

Today we had our rehearsal for next weeks UStream program broadcast for our assessment, which will take place on the 18th January. With our group going first, scheduled at a 1pm start, we assembled all of our paperwork in the morning, in order to decide upon a proper way to shoot our program. We went off on our briefly in the group to ensure everything had been done and everything needed for the shoot was in order. The roles in our group were as follows:

1. Director - Josh Lloyd
2. Vision Mixer - Luis Winder
3. Producer - Joe Kerrigan
4. Floor Manager - Jack Ware

As I am acting as the vision mixer for our group, I had to make sure that the VT we made as part of our work with Dave was ready to be implemented into the tricaster. With a copy saved I began trying to load it in via USB from my hard drive, which proved to be harder than I expected, eventually we had to add our VT in through the public Lacie server, then accessed from the Tricaster itself so it could be loaded in. With that done, we were more or less ready to begin the shoot, with our cast growing ever more restless, we decided to do a shoot, with some aspects running smoothly, and some not so much. However, the day did prove to be quite important as it showed us that we were still not totally prepared, letting us discover what needs to be done before next week.
