Editing Workshop According to our survey in 2011, DCUtv had a lot of improvements to make with regard to their workshops. We felt that our members needed to learn more valuable skills and become more competent as DCUtv crewmembers. That is why we decided in semester one, to embrace our love of sharing skills and run a 6-week video-editing programme. Our lack of editing skills (as a society in general) had sometimes proved an issue and this programme would prove to be the answer to our problems. The response we got was outstanding when we sent out an email asking for interest. We brought the topic up at our EGM also, so between online and word of mouth, news spread fast that we were running the program and left us feeling very hopeful for the future of editing in DCUtv. We began the workshop in week 3 of semester one. We ran two workshops every week, which lasted one hour each with 25 students in each class. Amongst learning the basics of Final Cut Pro, our members managed to interact with other
like-minded people and develop what they had learned in a creative manner. Laura and Jack (DCUtv Managers) acted as the teachers of the course and they too learned some valuable skills in managing large groups in a teaching environment. The course began with very basic skills including importing files and correct naming procedures and developed into a more advanced level when students began to learn about colour correction, speed, motion and text. Each participant received a certificate on completion, which was awarded by our DCUtv Station Manager, Laura and DCUtv Deputy Station Manager, Jack. They also got to celebrate with a load of pizza, and a fun time was had by all. The experience was undoubtedly highly beneficial for DCUtv managers but also for the members. The workshop also showed up as one of the major highlights in our survey for members.
Camera Booking DCUtv decided in semester one that a new camera booking system was needed. The old way of just emailing was becoming unstructured and the managers knew a change needed to be made. The system involved emailing again, but this time with more precision and accuracy involved. Members have now to email tv@dcumps.com or tv2@dcumps.com say when you need it and between what times. The times available are then outlined to the members. Members must then collect the camera in the loans office upstairs in the Henry Gratten between these times. It must also be returned within these times. The room number is C105. Once they book a camera a confirmation email will be sent to you. DCUtv also let members know that they shouldn’t be afraid to book as it is the only way they will fully learn how to use the cameras/other equipment. We are now further developing our booking system by including it in our new website and allowing members to book online. We re-outlined the system to our
members when we held a meeting on the the 27th of February at a “How to DCUtv” style gathering where members were further outlined on the ins and outs of DCUtv. The new system has made DCUtv more accessible to MPS members and we continue to strive in this area of equipment management.
DCUtv with Clubs & Socs DCU Drama 24 Hour Musical
DCU Drama Stars in Your Eyes
MPS has a great history in DCU of supporting other societies in the college and we always work hard to help them in any way we can. We know more than anyone else that college is not just about studies. You have to do what you are passionate about. And when we see clubs and societies doing what they love, we want to be part of that, doing what we love.
DCU Drama’s event ‘Stars in Your Eyes’, based on the popular TV show, was one of the first events of the year that DCUtv was asked to film. This was a golden opportunity for some of our new members to get some hands on experience using our equipment. Jake Ryan and Stephanie Byrne, two first year multimedia students eagerly accepted the task of filming, after being recently trained to use our cameras and tripod at our equipment workshop.
DCU Drama performed a 24hour musical in October to raise money for “Bee for Battens”. They asked us to film the event for them and we did. It’s great experience for our members and that is what MPS is all about. Everyone wants to get out and experiment with the cameras.
Both DCUtv Managers, Laura and Jack, were performing in the show so they were on hand to help the two cinematographers should any difficulties arise, however they managed the job with ease. The show was a success and the footage was handed on to DCU Drama afterwards. Jake and Stephanie have been active members in the society ever since, attending events and running shows on DCUfm. Sadly Jack did not place in Stars in Your Eyes, but Laura came in second!
These events are not just fun – they are a learning experience as well. Our TV managers go to these events and teach members how to use the cameras. How to focus, zoom in, and zoom out, how to attach the camera to a tripod and what constitutes as a good shot. They also teach our members how to work the sound equipment and how to get the best quality audio. These are basic skills that employers look for so our members CVs benefit too. For the musical, we set up our JVC camera on a tripod at the back of the venue by the sound box. We attached a boom mike to pick up the sound. We had someone on camera for the full 24 hours. Then we edited it to create a full package that Drama could spread online and hopefully go viral.
come dine with me The idea to film “Come Dine With Me DCU” came about very easily. We knew it was a format that people liked and we knew it was very watchable. To begin the process, Franky sent out an email to the whole society asking members who wanted to take part. We specified that the members must either live on campus or near DCU (for the convenience of contestants and production crew) and we got a huge response! We narrowed the night down to four contestants and unfortunately had a last minute dropout and had to adjust to filming with three. Luckily the three contestants were brilliant and put in so much effort into the filming. We filmed over three nights where contestants had to come up with a three-course meal and serve it to their guests. The guests then rated the night out of ten- considering the food, entertainment and the host! One lucky person came out on top and received a 50euro voucher to shop in Centra which was sponsored to us thanks to our lovely CRO Mary. The filming that took place itself was done quite simply. Three members were involved in total each taking a night for themselves. Each camera operator had to follow the whole night and then arrange single interviews with each contestant. The experience was very rewarding for both participants and the producers. Editing is still underway but will be broadcast soon on our website, vimeo and youtube account.
SURF’N’SAIL SWIM
In December the DCU Surf N’ Sail club asked DCUtv to come along to film their Christmas swim in Howth, in aid of the Howth RNLI. Our DCUtv Deputy Manager, Jack Power, accompanied the brave souls heading into the freezing water to capture the event. He filmed the entire event, using our new Merlin Steadicam for the first time. The event was a great success and the resulting video greatly pleased the Surf N’ Sail club and it’s members, particularly those who took part. MPS are known to film events and help societies out at the drop of a hat, this year, using Surf N’ Sail as an example, MPS have gone from strength to strength building relationships with smaller societies.
