Male, 15

My career started in 8th grade when I got involved with a school TV news show. I now work on local news shows in the studio and I also record local public events so they can be shown on TV. I've been a director, teleprompter tech, switcher tech, graphic editor, and more.

What I love about live TV is the teamwork, responsibility, intensity, and communication that it requires, more than the artistic part.

I know more about behind the scenes stuff than TV talent stuff, but ask me anything!

Have a nice day!

can you inform me or give some explanation about what kind of stuff (mainly the kind of monitors that appear in that picture), because I have only a little bit of knowledge about TV control room

Asked by Gunanto over 10 years ago

Hi. Okay so basically all of those screens are different things going on. Some are camera shots from the studio, some are camera shots from the field, some are graphics made by people in the control room, some are videos that can be shown, etc. Then there's one image that is the "program." It's pretty much exactly what people are seeing at home. To make that image, we have to choose which camera shot we will use and which graphics will also be on the screen.

Lets say you want to have a reporter with a name caption, and then a video clip from a few hours ago. You would first have to select the reporter's camera shot, and then have the name tag go up too. Then after, you would have the video clip replace the reporter on screen.

It can be pretty simple depending on how you look at it. If you still have questions, or if I didn't answer something clearly, please let me know!

How many butchers and complainers call in to the station? I know with weather for instance people get angry even if it’s a EF-5 tornado for interrupting their show but others get mad if they don’t break in for a tornado warring barley touching
