Before we started the rehearsals we had sessions in the TV studio to learn how to use the differn't equipment that would be used in order to shoot a multi-camera production, this included how to work the vision mixing, audio, talkback and camera eqipment.
The first role I took on was that of a floor manager. It invlolved being the directors voice on the floor, I had to make sure that all the other roles understood and knew what was expected of them. I also needed to solve any problems (technical and emotional) of anyone in the studio at the time, I also needed to let the director know when the floor was ready, and if they wern't ready I needed to let the director know how long it would be until the floor was ready for shooting.
Then I took on the responsibility of sound operator. Being a sound/audio operator is an important job. I had to make sure everyone was mic'd up properly and had to take the levels of everybodies voices, to make sure that all the sound levels were the same. (No more than +9 decibels)I also had to fade the VT inserts in out when needed.
I also took part in being an audience member which I found useful, because that way you can see how the overall project would look and also how the faults that may occur will be portrayed to the audience.
