Live Studio Director / Vision Mixer
Warrington
Seeking 'seasoned' studio director / vision mixers for a fast-paced, live, multi-camera broadcast every night on ITV1 and STV from midnight to 3am.
Successful candidates must have substantial experience in directing and vision mixing live, studio-based TV shows.
The work includes planning camera and set/prop positions based on the show content (in cooperation with producers), performing lineup with MCR and Pres at ITV and STV, rolling titles and VT inserts, calling camera shots, operating the audio desk (faders for mics and VT assets) and remote PTZ overhead cameras, following running-order instructions from producers, leading floor managers, directing on-air talent, and maintaining accurate on- and off-air timings/countdowns.
We operate a 4-camera studio (3 peds / 1 jib), with a Blackmagic Design ATEM 4 M/E switcher and 2 M/E Advanced Panel, a Yamaha audio desk, and PC-based VT playout systems.
Shifts are only 5 hours at our Warrington studio: arrive at 22:00 / on air from 00:00 (exact start times vary).
