As a broadcast engineer, you might work on studio and outside broadcasts ('OBs'), post-production operations, and new media such as interactive TV and webcasts. You might be directly involved in broadcasting, or you might focus on servicing the equipment.
Your key tasks could include:
setting up studio equipment for transmission and editing
designing and setting up audio and video circuits
installing multimedia hardware, software and other digital broadcast technology systems
setting up and operating links between studios and OB units
vision mixing (editing programmes live as they are being transmitted or recorded)
testing and servicing equipment
finding and repairing technical faults as quickly as possible, with minimum loss of service.
You would work as part of a team that can also include producers, studio managers and presenters.
