lol you have to know about audio levels, video voltages/levels, aspect ratio's, PSE, audio processing, DVNR (digital noise reduction), how to use a DigiBeta machines, all the menu's of the DB and what they do, legalisers, ARC's (aspect ratio converters), other formats including D3/5 machines, 1" C-Format, SP's, HD formats etc, servers, EBU specs, Timecodes including LTC and VITC, audio scales incl PPM & VU & loudness, routing of the matrix (the thing that routes all the signals to all devices), waveform monitors incl knowing gamut displays (i.e diamond display measuring RGB levels, arrowhead measuring composite lvls), lightning display, RGB display voltage display, Y B-Y R-Y voltage display, analogue and digital formats and connections including digital component (SDI - Y and colour diff through one connection at a data transfer rate of 270Mb/s & HDSDI @ 1.485 Gb/s) and analogue component (Y R-Y B-Y connections through three separate cables)... list goes on.
And the above are just the ones I can remember right now:)
Its a very technical job and not as easy as I had previously made out!

It is well known to be the best... ask anyone in the industry! For work experience we were allowed to be camera ops on Big Brother and @ Wimbledon amongst other things! The BBC, ITV etc give money to Ravensbourne to train the future of the industry... its that good:)

hmmm cool *Cough*show off *cough* I wanted to do something with media, not what you're doing though, I used to want to be a Radio Dj half well most of the time you don't even need a qualification for that (yay!) its all about experiance, I know a few started from hospital radio, So I think I'll go around some hospitals asking if they have a radio station Hahah, it could only happen to you. yeah I didn't even get a warning, I think I said "I aint no transexual donkey" in my sig and some transexual donkeys obviously emailed (donkeys are very smart) the mods at the ch4 to get me banned

I quite love this show now. I was so scared for that doctor when she got stuck in the office and all the rabid male prisoners were trying to get at her. Thank the lord for hero Michael. That Teabag bloke is skeevy.

Quite a while to wait then. There's no liking him! He's a big paedophile! And he killed that rookie CO, which made me mad.

I don't like to dwell on him too much That other guy with the longish hair and mob connections is skanky too. They all need to have a wash. And the Doctor is onto Michael. She's sharp.
