Core modules

Featured courses

What you will master

Four disciplines, taught on a working studio floor, shaped around the way UK news, interview and live programmes are really made.

Equipment integration

Wire vision mixers, routers, intercom, tally and playout into one chain that behaves the same every single show.

Dynamic camera work

Plan shot lists, move pedestals, jibs and handhelds with intent, and cut between them without losing the story.

Acoustic optimisation

Tame reflections, place microphones and balance mixes so presenters and guests are clear from the first word.

Lighting setups

Build three-point and wide-set looks that flatter people, match colour temperature and hold across a long run.
