The project is supported by Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA). The main objective of the production manual are to demonstrate the step by step instruction to produce HD programs to the new staff, , as well as to improve knowledge, skills, and techniques of the program production of the experienced staff. Utilization of the manual would help producers to properly plan and execute their production. Botswana Television (BTV) is transforming into digital and is expected to increase the number of the programs. Therefore, this manual is targeted to all news, production, and technical staff of BTV, to support to create different kinds of programs with different contents and angles. The content is basically divided into the following parts: 1. Basic Production Process for Television Programs 2. Pre-production (Preparation before filming) 3. Production (Shooting) 4. Post-production (Editing and completing the program) 5. Evaluation of the programs 6.

Most of the programs are live or recorded in the studio or on location and there are hardly any programs which are originally planned and edited. (See the Table 1-1) Therefore, the level of the techniques and skills of the staff is relatively high. However, the techniques and skills of staff do not reach the enough level to create originally- proposed and planned programs. This manual focuses on procedure of basic program production to produce edited original programs, considering HD (high definition) format. However, the shooting techniques in HD format will be useful for camera works for live broadcast and studio programs, and editing techniques can be applied to switching the cameras. The table 1-1 indicates the numbers and types of the programs BTV produces each year. Depending on the year and circumstances, the programs would be added or canceled, therefore, the numbers are approximate. 1-1 S-1-8 Separate Volume 1 Table 1-1: Programs BTV Produces Each Year TYPES OF PROGRAM NUMBERS OF PROGRAMS / YEAR Live News in Setswana 365 Live News in English 365 Live broadcast of the events (Independence day, 20 President Day, etc.) Live sports games coverage 60 ~ 65 Educational talk show (live or recorded) 56 Music show 104 Religious programs (Gospel music, Church services, 208 etc.) Talk show 104 Current affairs (Studio) 52 Source: BTV 1-2 S-1-9 Separate Volume 1 The process of all production of the programs can be divided into 3 stages: pre- production, production and post-production. The figure 1-1 shows basic production procedure. Figure 1-1: Program Production Process 1-3 S-1-10 Separate Volume 1 1.2 PRODUCTION CREW Production crews vary in size depending on the magnitude of the production. For example, live broadcast of a football game requires large crew, as compared to a news crew that could limit to only a journalist and a cameraman. The table 1-2 below indicates basic production crew for small-scale original programs. Table 1-2: Basic Production Crew Roll Description Producer Responsible for all the staff involved in the production and coordinates technical and nontechnical issues. In small-scale production, the producer maybe director and/or writer at the same time. Director In charge of actual production from pre-production to completion of the programs. In small-scale production director may be producer and/or writer at the same time. Writer In a small-scale production producer and/or director is writer. Videographer Operates cameras and shoot. Audio technician In charge of all the audio operations. Sometimes assist videographer in recording sounds or interview on location. Editor Operates post-production editing system. Often producer and/or director makes rough cut before fine cut. Graphic designer Creates computer graphics, program titles, charts, graphs, etc. 1-4 S-1-11 Separate Volume 1 1.3 STAGE 1: PRE-PRODUCTION Pre-production is basically the preparation and organization of the whole production process before the actual shooting. The process starts with having a concept, setting the objectives, and writing a proposal. Once the proposal is approved, necessary information for the program content must be researched and collected. Based on the result of the research, shooting locations, interviewees, and obtaining filming permissions, etc. are selected. Rough script outline, questions for the interview, and filming schedule must be prepared before going to locations. It is also recommended to have meetings with all the production crew, including journalists, producers, directors, and technical crew to share the information and filming plan.

  • Governance Relationships in Football Between Management and Labour Roitman - Governance Relationships Marston, C
    Building on the two prior CIES governance studies, this is the third FIFA-mandated research analysing governance relationships in football. This book focuses on those Editions CIES between football’s employers (clubs, leagues and even NAs) and its labour force. Based on a sample of forty countries across all six confederations and questionnaires from players’ associations, leagues and national associations, this research surveys and compares the diverse ‘management-labour’ approaches and scenarios in both men and women’s professional football worldwide. GOVERNANCE RELATIONSHIPS The authors place a special focus on players’ associations and highlight the variety of IN FOOTBALL BETWEEN structures found world-wide. The findings here contribute to a better understanding MANAGEMENT AND LABOUR of the systems, models and relationships in place around the globe when it comes to PLAYERS, CLUBS, LEAGUES & NATIONAL ASSOCIATIONS ‘management’ and ‘labour’. This book explores the representation of Kevin Tallec Marston, Camille Boillat & Fernando Roitman players within decision-making structures at club, league and national association level as well as the regulatory contexts and negotiation instruments linking players and management - such as collaborative agreements/MoUs, CBAs, minimum contract requirements and dispute resolution. In addition, this study provides a first ever global exploration of some of the inner workings of players’ associations and an overview of the key issues in professional football from the player’s perspective. The final chapter offers several models and frameworks illustrating the governance relationships between players and management. All three authors work at the International Centre for Sport Studies (CIES). Kevin Tallec Marston earned his PhD in history and works as research fellow and academic projects manager.
