Network TenEditing Intern
Apr. 2012 - Jun. 2012BrisbaneDuring my time at Network Ten in Brisbane, I was fortunate enough to meet many different professionals and learn about them and their craft. Specifically, I learnt in the Editing Department of Network Ten. I spent days meeting and learning about the different editors, and their cutting style, their opinion on the film and television industry, and I was also fortunate enough to gather some positive and useful advice, I will be able to use in order to aid my own career in the industry. I spent time, cutting previous days new stories, as well as gathering helpful advice from fellow editors and supervisors. I also spent time learning about the ins-and-outs of how they broadcast, and how they organise everything for the news each night. My time at Network Ten, though brief, taught me a lot about professionals in the industry, and how a Broadcast Network efficiently operates.
