Book excerpt: MANY OF THE MOST EXCITING, LUCRATIVE and prestigious careers available today are available in television production. The field includes producers, directors, cinematographers, writers, editors, camera operators, special effects experts, and sound engineers. Many TV professionals work at studios and production companies in the major entertainment centers of Hollywood and New York City. Others are employed in smaller cities, creating local news programs, morning talk shows, instructional videos, web-based video series, and commercials. Could you be successful in the television industry? Talent - creativity, imagination, the ability to tell a good story - is an important qualification. Add some training on the technical and artistic aspects of TV, supplemented by practical experience as you learn the business, and you will be ready to start. Do you enjoy the creative process? Could you work well in a collaborative environment, teaming with fellow creative workers to guide a show from initial idea through broadcast? Can you handle constructive criticism? Are you persistent? If so, you could be successful in a TV career. A four-year degree is not required but is typically helpful to get started. Some TV professionals start out in film school, but others get their training from traditional colleges and universities. A degree in TV production, journalism, or mass communication will give you a broad overview of the industry. More advanced technical training will be required for certain specialties, such as camera operator or sound engineer. TV professionals work for major production studios, local television stations, corporations, not-for-profit organizations, marketing firms, and advertising agencies. Some are employees of production houses or studios, working as part of a team that creates each week's episodes for a series. Others are contractors who move among different studios to tackle individual projects. It is not easy to break into television, as competition is fierce for the limited number of positions available. There are about 130,000 positions available in television productions, with average annual earnings of about $70,000. You will need talent, training, and determination to succeed. If you are willing to spend the necessary time studying the industry, learning the basics of TV production, you can achieve the personal and professional satisfaction that accompanies a career in television.

Download or read book Popular Music And Television In Britain written by Ian Inglis and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-04-22 with total page 267 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Listening to popular music and watching television have become the two most common activities for postwar generations in Britain. From the experiences of programmes like Oh Boy! and Juke Box Jury, to the introduction of 24 hour music video channels, the number and variety of television outputs that consistently make use of popular music, and the importance of the small screen as a principal point of contact between audiences and performers are familiar components of contemporary media operation. Yet there have been few attempts to examine the two activities in tandem, to chart their parallel evolution, to explore the associations that unite them, or to consider the increasingly frequent ways in which the production and consumption of TV and music are linked in theory and in practice. This volume provides an invaluable critical analysis of these, and other, topics in newly-written contributions from some of Britain's leading scholars in the disciplines of television and/or popular music studies. Through a concentration on four main areas in which TV organises and presents popular music - history and heritage; performers and performances; comedy and drama; audiences and territories - the book investigates a diverse range of musical genres and styles, factual and fictional programming, historical and geographical demographics, and the constraints of commerce and technology to provide the first systematic account of the place of popular music on British television.

Download or read book Working in the Global Film and Television Industries written by Andrew Dawson and published by A&C Black. This book was released on 2012-08-02 with total page 259 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Like many other cultural commodities, films and TV shows tend to work in such a way as to obscure the conditions under which they are produced, a process that has been reinforced by dominant trends in the practice of Film and Television Studies. This collection places the workplace experiences of industry workers at centre stage. It looks at film and television production in a variety of social, economic, political, and cultural contexts. The book provides detailed analyses of specific systems of production and their role in shaping the experience of work, whilst also engaging with the key theoretical and methodological questions involved in film and television production. Drawing together the work of historians, film scholars, and anthropologists, it looks at film and television production not only in Hollywood and Western Europe but also in less familiar settings such as the Soviet Union, India, Nigeria, and the Democratic Republic of Congo. Chronologically wide-ranging, interdisciplinary and international in scope, it is a unique introduction, critical for all students of the film industries and film production.
