Lots of TV work and the like.

Work experience on The Friday Zone in 1997. I did this every Friday for about 5 shows.

More BBC photo's from another placement in 1998 , this time on cameras. Had one week there and had a different program to work on each day.

Some pics from Fantasy football league, Nickelodeon, SPIS and The Really Wild Show or some earlier version of it.

Sage or is it Onion?? And again, with my sister. Outside, in the middle of TV centre.
Looking out towards QPR's ground. Looking after the kids, making sure they did nothing silly. Rehearsals in the morning, we al get gunged having to play the games the children would play later.
Time for a break. One of the groups of kids we had to look after. Yet another group.
And a girls class. More kids. There were two schools each week from different parts of England.  
Alison after getting gunged. Peter Simon taking the micky. Steve Rock with his room key.
Chris Jarvis another one of the presenters. Emma Lee, there was also Josie D'Arby and Dominic the magician.

Courtney Love and Marc Almond, then onto the green room for drinks and party.
Totally knackered after running around all night, free drinks at the after party. Part of the sound system's amp, so many toys every where. One of the huge mixing desks, one for each band and then a master for all.

A another post production company in London, I was here as a runner for a couple of months.
Crap job, very hard work, but it's a start in the industry, so happy I progressed quickly. 2000.

Inside one of the Telecine suits, most people were pretty nice, there were a couple of wankers though Front sound, Al's room, one of the good guys. One of the on-line suits
Steve's sound prep, another one of the nice guys in the industry, not many like him. Numbers

Had a work placement at Nickelodeon, took a few pics of the madness in 1998.
I worked here for work experience to try and get a job after finishing Uni.

A shot of some of the guys who also worked there answering phones and the like. It was a great laugh. It could be hard work especially when the kids got home from school and kept ringing, really enjoyed it though. On the phone to someone, always some funny kid.
