First Lego League

On January 30, 2011, in Television & Video Production, by Television Faculty

The First Lego League BC Provincial Championships were a nice opening live event production for the BCIT Television & Video Production students this year!

We had a great group of volunteers who donated their time on Friday and Saturday to produce the event.  Our students were doing everything from running the cables to switching, directing, running the cameras and streaming the signal online.  Check out the photo gallery for some behind the scenes production action!

We had a few technical issues with our internet feed that resulted in the quality being lower than we had hoped for, however a fix is in the works and we’re already looking forward to our next live event.  Stay tuned!
