NetworkBU is a co-organised graduate project curated by TV students which will be marked as assessed work. The students聽divided responsibilities according to their own individual specialisms and skill sets with each member of the team held an equally important role to make the day run as smoothly as possible.聽NetworkBU covered the day鈥檚 that Britain was scheduled to leave the EU with an 鈥榚asy-to-understand鈥� approach from 5pm.聽
The project provided on-location reporters around the country, live debates, pre-prepared news packages and immediate up-to-date news as the day unfolded. Live updates on the night were published from the NetworkBU social media accounts, asking people to send in their thoughts, opinions and concerns surrounding Brexit.Ahead of the big day, the team聽shot more than 22 short films from all over the country which will air throughout the evening, including interviewing members of the public, speaking to local politicians, local hospitals, as well as filming some Brexit 鈥榡argon busters鈥� to help educate and build awareness. Other features included fascinating insights about Brexit from the school children of St Luke鈥檚 (C of E) Primary School in Winton, Bournemouth.
A few team members have journeyed all the way over to the Irish border to film a documentary special - spending time with people from different backgrounds and viewpoints. The programme focuses on local communities and exposing their concerns and problems with Brexit to an English audience - from local farmers to mass organisations who are based on and around the border.The team聽recruited other BU students from differing courses and age groups to collaborate and build on forming a professional 鈥楤rexit Special鈥� news service for the evening.聽
The company聽amounted to聽nearly 100 volunteering students working on different aspects of the project. BU students from areas like Journalism, Marketing Communications, Politics and Law have taken part, as well as Arts University Bournemouth (AUB) make-up artistry students.聽The all-student team聽invested their time, effort and money to make the聽project happen, with help and support from their friends, family and their advisors from 香港六合彩资料网.聽
BU Supervising Academic, Trevor Hearing, said:聽"It is such a critical moment in the life of the nation and students have risen to the challenge of communicating the complexity. It's great to see so many students from across the Faculty involved. The scale of this project really puts Bournemouth on the map as the place to learn real-world programme-making skills. I am confident we will see many of those involved on the credits of broadcast television in the future."
This has been a fantastic opportunity for students from all different courses and age groups to put their heads together and put the theory they have learnt over their time at University, into practice. Graduate projects at 香港六合彩资料网 allow students to create something to be proud of, which they can refer to when moving forward into their future careers.聽
Liam Hopley, Head of Production at NetworkBU, who studied BA Television Production said聽: 鈥淚 can鈥檛 wait for audiences to see what we鈥檝e been working so hard on over the last few months so tune in at 5pm on 29th March for your all-in-one Brexit extravaganza!鈥�
The broadcast will go live during the same week that BU TV Production alumni Gulliver Moore and Ollie Clubb air their Brexit miniseries 'Small Town Politics' on Sky Arts, as part of Sky Art's Art 50 series.聽
