To produce a 10
minute Video News Release to be sent to Red Robot in London for release through
Reuters Thompson.
My roles
Researching the
story and sourcing talent.
Liaising with
Tourism and Events Queensland, Big Planet Media and the talent to lock in two shooting
locations.
Producing a shooting schedule and compiling a runsheet.
Accompanying
camera crew to locations.
Conducting all
interviews, previewing interviews and selecting grabs on a very tight
time-frame in order to release our Video News Release ahead of other media
competitors.
Confirming a pool
feed for overlay. When it became apparent that this pool feed would not be
turned around in time to meet our deadline in London, I negotiated
with Red Bull (who had the exclusive broadcast rights) to allow us to
conduct our own interviews instead of taking those from the pool feed. I also
negotiated exclusive access to roll on the Red Bull feed as it went
live instead of waiting along with other national and international
media to access vision from the pool feed. This gave Tourism and Events Queensland a huge advantage over
other media outlets.
Compiling the
shotlist and transcribing grabs.
Writing the media
release.
