So, I just started volunteering at the local community tv station. I shall explain how this is both odd and potentially beneficial.
Firstly, I must express how surprised I am at how low the quality of the station's in-house facilities are. Studio isn't sound-proofed, dodgy carpet not fitted to the floor that is in shots. No calibration gear on vision or sound. No compressors on inputs or general program limiter. Plus many other things.
I also feel odd being the only one who knows anything about sound. This actually puts me at an advantage for a permanent paid position. I don't know how to feel about this. Is it a good career move? As a head of sound having to accept sub-par results due to lack of gear will I be shunned?
On the flip side, there are some upgrades coming, and my knowledge could maybe improve the station and bring me kudos for my deeds.
Or, as is the norm, nothing happens.
