I am a NASCAR fan, one of my favorite things to do with my scanner when at a race in person is to tune into the race broadcast on Radio or TV. This is very similar to that. The instant the red light turns off and the producer says "all clear" it's a totally different environment! But then everyone shuts up again when the producer says "stand by" or begins counting down.
I'm an Ignite director at a station in Ohio. I always enjoy seeing control room footage of other stations, especially larger markets/netowrk. Thanks for the inside look. Looks like Sony ELC automation?
This is really interesting, and television radio broadcasting production and technology is a subject that I would really like to work in. Unfortunately, I have dyscalculia, which basically means that algebra, trigonometry, and other similar prequesites, go over my head and under my feet without going into and remaining in my brain 🧠 I can understand complex concepts, as long as they're expressed in words and sentences. I would appreciate any advice regarding overcoming dyscalculia.
Why do all American broadcasts start with black?! It got me very confused. Black means No signal, signal is scrambled, technical faults or feed is lost. Starting a broadcast with black video is the worst thing there is. I’ve never seen that here in the Netherlands. Or even in Europe. All our broadcasts start with an ident, leader or camera shot Can someone please explain why American broadcasts start with black video? I’m very curious
it's honestly a good question. I just have always been trained to start in black and dissolve (or mix as you say in europe) to the open. Most master control systems these days do not have black in them at all to squeeze every second possible out of the broadcast day for ad sales. if you like at the very top monitor in the shot (labeled MON2) you'll notice when they go to break, come back etc it doesn't dissolve from black like you see on the program monitor... it's an abrupt cut
7:24 I love how everyone went "Pan up???"
Pan backwards then up please. LOL
I had to pause and make a comment for that "Pan up."

This is very interesting. Thank you for the behind the scenes!
First time I've seen preview (next) monitor on right. Usually left of air.
Yeah it's messing my head all up 🤣
And my preview (next) is on the left too :D
It's an LA Director's Guild thing....
you read left to right - i cannot understand why the guys in LA do this right to left thing
Why is Preview on the right and Program on the left? Weird, isn't it?
This definitely threw me off for the first two minutes.
I like how they have audio levels on program screen
Yes I hate it in my mind lol
Was thinking the same thing.
after all, it depends on how the control room screens are setup.
Very Interesting to watch!

Cool. Maybe if I didn't go into another line of work (in I.T.) maybe I would have wanted to work the control room.
all those nice broadcast monitors
Work for the BBC. Nice to see how parts of the job are similar and differ for the American market.
An ultra-wide camera would be nice for behind the scenes like this
😍 this is amazing
this is awesome ! love this job!
Victor! This is a great video. Great to see all of those familiar faces. Very cool.
This is so cool!
Great job. Wish the director's audio was louder/clearer.
Literally 'Not for broadcast'
This is my job actually 😊
My god this looks so hard 😮
The heck....... ya'll use sony ELC too?!

What news production software are you using there, iNews? I'm so used to seeing an ENPS rundown...
Can I use this for my RUclips video?
Is this where you work?
Who are you calling cues to if this is ELC, and why do you have to name the anchors so much???
A control room job seems very intimidating
cg out.... cut !
