It analyses the relationship between the physical location of TV series production at Elstree Studios, UK, the representation of place in programmes, and the international trade in television fiction between the UK and USA. The TV series made at Elstree by the ITC and ABC companies and their affiliates linked Britishness with an international modernity associated with the USA, while also promoting national specificity. To do this, they drew on film production techniques that were already common for TV series production in Hollywood.

  • 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.

  • Oliver Dowden CBE MP End of Term Report
    Oliver Dowden CBE MP End of Term Report It has been a busy start to 2016, with lots going on both in Parliament and in the constituency. I was pleased to receive positive comments from so many of you following my Christmas newsletter, so here is my Easter update. On transport, I have campaigned on: reliability, cost and for train station improvements. Unfortunately, since the start of 2016 we have not seen an improvement in the reliability of the Thameslink service. I therefore raised my concerns directly with the Rail Minister in Parliament. I will be holding a public meeting in the Council Chamber in Borehamwood at 7:30pm on 31st March. This represents a great opportunity for hard pressed commuters to raise their concerns directly with Govia representatives. Please email [email protected] if you would like to attend. On cost, I have met with representatives from London Midland to discuss the possibility of Bushey station being re-zoned. I followed up this meeting by making a formal submission to the West Coast Mainline Service consultation. I have continued my campaign for Oyster PAYG to be extended to Radlett and Potters Bar. I have raised the matter with the Rail Minister. In relation to Radlett, I believe that Oyster will be extended but this is proving to be a complex process. In relation to Potters Bar I am now working with Grant Shapps MP to press the case for extension of the service on this line. I have raised with the Rail Minister the need for increased investment at Borehamwood station.

  • Rt Hon Oliver Dowden CBE MP
    Rt Hon Oliver Dowden CBE MP Member of Parliament for Hertsmere End of Parliament Report – November 2019 As this Parliament reaches its conclusion, I wanted to write to you to update you on my work over the previous four years as your Member of Parliament. As always, a report of this length cannot cover everything so to see more of what I have been working on please do visit my Facebook, Instagram, Twitter or website where I regularly share posts and updates. Transport After my four year long campaign, Oyster was delivered to Potters Bar and Radlett in August. This enables people to travel easily and more flexibly, and I formally opened the system with the Transport Secretary at Radlett Station. I’ve also made progress securing upgrades to transport facilities across the constituency. After pressing Thameslink, Elstree and Borehamwood Station has been completely overhauled, including a much-needed wider entrance and re-furbished concourse. Moreover, a £300m Government investment into Thameslink’s infrastructure has delivered improvements along the whole line. Potters Bar and Radlett will be receiving money from the £15m Passenger Benefit Fund and I successfully pushed Govia Thameslink to speed the roll-out of new, larger and more modern carriages to improve passenger journeys. At the same time I continue to meet regularly with representatives from London Northwestern about improvements to Bushey Station, including more toilets, shelters and bike racks. I know the service on Thameslink and Great Northern has at times been completely unacceptable. I commute and know first-hand the frustration and anger caused by the timetable chaos last year.

  • Latest Community Activities
    “Yavneh College is a school which aspires to have the community at its heart, and to be at the heart of the community.” Edition 3 Spring 2016 (Spencer Lewis, Headteacher, September 2013) Latest community activities The school’s is proud to outline its current community projects which outline its commitment to British Values and SMSC. Young People of the Year (“YOPEY”) Is a campaign to give young people a fairer image in the media and society as a whole by revealing, recognising and rewarding young unsung heroes. Yavneh College’s Keshet Dor age 13 won the Hertfordshire Junior Young Person of the Year 2015 at a ceremony on 10 November 2015. Keshet plans and runs services every Saturday for up to 10 youngsters, aged three to seven, at Elstree and Borehamwood Masorti Community Synagogue. Keshet also spends one day a week reading to an 11-year-old boy who struggles to walk and is unable to speak. Following her Bat Mitzvah last year, Keshet gave the £300 she received as gifts to help Kisharon buy computer software to help an adult who has communication difficulties. The competition judges, included Hertsmere Mayor Martin Worster as well as other members of the distinguished audience and past YOPEY finalists, said: “Keshet has proved that if you put your mind and heart to something you love doing then anything is achievable regardless of age.” Visit from Mrs Nicky Morgan MP We were delighted and honoured to welcome the Secretary of State for Education, the Rt Hon. Mrs Nicky Morgan MP who visited our school at the start of this academic year.
