This is it; the halfway point. Not just halfway through the sound section, but halfway through the whole BBC experience!
Today I was supervised by Alice, who had only recently joined the BBC herself. However, she has done much in related studies and is attending university during her casual post at the BBC...At a very young age, she operates with impressive capabilities! It's the type of dedication to a career that I can only imagine for myself!
It wasn't clear how much she had supervised someone doing work experience, but I got a sense that it wasn't a regular occurance for her. And it did seem like sometimes she felt I was still in very early-learning stages. In some instances, it did appear to make her quite disengaged with supervising. Again, perhaps this was a case of my communication not being clear enough again...But despite that, she was happy to talk the majority of the time and to answer questions and explain controls and sequences (in some cases; explain again for me). Although considering this was the third time out of five at the sound-desk, I really did hope to advance a little bit more by this time and perhaps even assist with operating a couple of functions (even as a practice run), but unfortunately not this week, which was a bit frustrating.
