A day in the gallery

Gain real insight into how a live show runs

Every training day follows the same rhythm as a professional production, so the habits you build are the ones employers expect.

1
Pre-show preparation
Read the running order, check source lists and agree cues with the director before anyone goes live.
2
Line up the sources
Check every camera, replay machine and graphics output on the multiviewer and confirm signal paths.
3
Comms and rehearsal
Test talkback with the studio floor, run a rehearsal and fix timing issues while there is still time.
4
Live switching
Cut to the right shot on the director’s call, mix transitions cleanly and stay one step ahead.
5
Problem solving on air
Handle late changes, lost sources and breaking items with a calm, rehearsed recovery routine.
6
Debrief and handover
Log faults, review the recording and hand over a clean, documented gallery to the next crew.
