Winol - 23rd March

This week we focused completely on the bulletin, the polish version and sportsweek. This meant we had more time to focus on them and that, fingers crossed we could sort any problems early on and not panic at the last minute. We also had Maria Milano in this week so we wanted to make sure we made a good impression on her too.

We got everything we wanted. This bulletin was perfect, there was not a single problem with it. The tricaster version was up on the website at 4 on the dot. The tape version was captured, logged and uploaded to youtube by 5pm as there was no editing to be done. The only problem we faced this week was that 30 seconds in to filming the live bulletin the fire alarm went off. We handled this by stopping all recordings, closing the studio and gallery and walking out. We were all annoyed about it but found that we just wanted to start again. So when the alarm stopped we all went back in, Justina told everyone we would be going live again at 10 past three so this gave everyone 4 minutes to calm down, get back in to positions and check sound and lighting. We went live at 3.10 and everything went swimmingly. We were later told how well we handled the fire alarm so I am very proud of my team for getting on with it and not letting the fire alarm ruin the bulletin.

Later, we did an interview with Maria and she congratulated us on how well we work together and how well we reacted with the fire alarm. We now have a break for four weeks but I am looking forward to getting back to WINOL at the end of April. When we get back from our Easter break we no longer have sportsweek to do anymore. This is because there is not so much sport happening anymore so there would be nothing to fill the show with. This means that the production team will have more time and we may try another show of our own and make it a little better than what we have had. Happy Easter everyone.
