    File: LR003208 - Alfred Bradley (interview 14) - no date.wav Duration: 0:39:10 Date: 31/07/2017 Typist: 715 START AUDIO Interviewer: A history of north regional broadcasting, interview number 14, Alfred Bradley. Radio's very first play was broadcast from Station 2LO London on the 15th November 1922. The day after Broadcasting England first began and it was heard in the children's programme but the north region can probably boast the first adult play written for wireless. L. du Garde Peach was the author. It came from the British Broadcasting Company's Metrovix studio and was broadcast by Station 2ZY. By the start of the 1930s far more Northerners were hearing plays than seeing them in the theatre. They were produced by the likes of Jan Bussell, Cecil McGiven and by Edward Wilkinson. The radio dramatic feature became the invention and hallmark of Geoffrey Brideson and Frances Dillon, Olive Shapley and Joan Littlewood all working from North region. By the 1940s James R Gregson had started a school for Radio Playwrights at the Leeds Studios. No history of North Regional Broadcasting would be anywhere near compete without BBC Regional Drama's most distinguished name, that of Alfred Bradley who's with me now. 0:01:19 Alfred you joined in 1959? Alfred Bradley: Yes, I came from a strange job. I was drama advisor in Leicestershire. I suppose I started off wanting to be an actor and I grew out of that very quickly. Found I was better at directing than acting. I couldn't be bothered to remember the lines.

  • Trivium: Entre Thrash Y Metalcore
    Image not found or type unknown www.juventudrebelde.cu Trivium: Entre thrash y metalcore Publicado: Lunes 12 febrero 2018 | 06:26:00 pm. Publicado por: Joaquín Borges-Triana Los que gustan de hacer headbanging y un buen mosh estarán de plácemes ante el nuevo disco de Trivium, el álbum titulado The sin and the sentence, y que es el octavo grabado en estudio durante la carrera de esta banda estadounidense. Por mi parte, debo decir que me encantó la propuesta del grupo del vocalista y guitarrista Matt Heafy, porque ella me retrotrae a la época dorada del thrash metal, estilo surgido en el decenio del 80 en la corrosiva y maravillosa ciudad de San Francisco, sitio de suma importancia para la historia del rock y del metal. Publicado por el sello Roadrunner Records, el CD contiene 11 piezas a través de las cuales apreciamos una muy llamativa mezcla entre elementos de Thrash Metal y componentes del metalcore, lo cual le confiere al fonograma una sonoridad bien moderna y en la que se consigue la unión entre llamativas líneas melódicas y el sentido oscuro característico de las tendencias extremas del metal. Según mi parecer, he ahí la clave de un material como The sin and the sentence, resultado también de los buenos oficios del productor Josh Wilbur. Para ese nuevo disco, la alineación de Trivium la conforman el ya aludido Matt Heafy como figura frontal de la agrupación, Corey Beaulieu en los trabajos vocales y como integrante de la mancuerna de guitarras el bajista Paolo Gregoletto y una nueva adquisición, Alex Bent en la batería.

  • What Is a Lighting Director?
    What is a lighting director by Martin Kempton What is a lighting director? Simply put - a lighting director designs the lighting for multi-camera television productions. He or she instructs the crew of electricians in their work in addition to guiding the team of operators who usually sit with the LD in the lighting control room. All this while working closely with the director and the rest of the production team to deliver the best possible pictures. However, there's rather more to it than that, and on this page on the website I explain where LDs work, what kinds of shows LDs work on and give some of the background to what we do. It's important to point out right away that simple 'illumination' is actually a relatively unimportant part of our work. Current TV cameras are capable of operating in very low light levels so it would be quite possible to see what was going on in most studios simply by switching on the houselights. Fortunately, producers and directors realise that the result would look pretty awful. Another thing is also worth making clear – a lighting director is not an electrician. He or she might have been once, but an LD is not another name for a crew chief or gaffer. Most television LDs do not have electrical qualifications, although some may have. In any case, this is not a requirement of the job. The electrical supervisor (gaffer) is in charge of realising the LD’s design in the studio from the rigging and electrical point of view.
