Have no fear, help is HERE!
If after viewing the tutorial and studying the steps, you still need further help, please contact a class "Trainer" to physically take you through the steps.
If you still don't feel confident to set up a job or run a job live during the announcements show, simply "shadow" another student while they work the job to get the feel of the steps needed.
And lastly, remember: Don't procrastinate and double-check everything!
- Begin by placing charged batteries into cameras.
- Turn cameras on and into ‘camera’ mode.
- Make sure cameras are placed in the correct position (behind the teleprompter) and at the correct height (just above the teleprompter.)
- Adjust the exposure levels by pressing the button on the side of the camera and pressing up for lighter exposure and down for darker.
- Put the headphones on from camera A and do a mic check. Make sure both studio microphones are on and that the mic levels are good.
- Since camera A will primarily be a two-shot, set the camera so that both talents are in shot and in focus. Set camera B for a one-shot of the first talent to speak (just ask director who that will be.)
