Before we could even start our rehearsals, we had a couple of sessions in the tv studio getting to know all of the terms and how all of the equipment worked, we also learned all of the camera movements and shots ect, for example when you turn a camera left or right this is called a pan.
We also had a couple of lessons showing us how the audio and video signals went through into the audio and vision control rooms, this was very interesting because we were also shown how the vision and audio mixing desks worked.
About 3 weeks after being shown what to do and how the tv studio works we were all giving roles to rehearse with so that we could get use to using the studio. My first role was vision mixing, this is a very important role because with out this you would see any vt inserts on the screen and the cameras wouldn't switch to each other, I really enjoyed this role because I felt like I was a big part of the show because with out me there would be anything come up on the screen. My second role was to play the contestent A, I did not mind this role because I got to get a little feel of what it would be like on a proper quiz show as a contestent. My third role was to be the camera operator for (cam 2), I liked this role because I had never been behind a camera before and this gave me a great experience of what it would be like, I was encharge of getting shots of the host and getting 3 shots of the talent.
In it's most understanding form, a rehearsal is to practise recording a tv show and to make sure that everything goes according to plan. If something goes wrong in the rehearsal it can be changed or corrected but if it is during the live show then this is a bit of a problem. The rehearsal is hand to correct any problems so that they don't go wrong in the live show.
