High Standards

It’s a busy backstage at the BBC Introducing Stage today. As well as Raw Talent and the Leeds Met crew, we’ve got Claire from BBC Introducing who has come up from Reading. The BBC have invited guests to get together in the backstage area and we’ve been talking to Sally Joynson from Screen Yorkshire and Head of BBC Yorkshire, Helen Thomas. They came into the production office to take a look at the film we made of The Frontiers (which you can see on this blog). Both Claire and Helen were really interested and impressed with the footage we’ve got and fingers crossed it will be going up on their websites in Yorkshire and Radio 1 soon.

Creating the short films on site has been really exciting and successful and we’re getting them up in about three to four hours. It’s nice to be able to see the results and share them so instantly because people can then understand what we’re doing and it’s nice to see the improvements as the days go on. Today the crew have been editing footage from The Teeth yesterday and have filmed Milk White White Teeth and the film should be up tomorrow. The crew have been really focussed and the production standards have been really high.
