Inside the writiqra course
What we are teaching
Modern television and live production depend on dozens of specialists working to the same plan. Our course follows a programme from an empty room to a finished broadcast, so you see how studio layout, camera systems, lighting and audio affect each other.
Every module is taught by working broadcast engineers in real facilities. You will build workflows that keep rehearsals short, shows on time and crews calm, whether you work for a national network or run events across the UK.
What is included
Everything that helps you step into a gallery, a studio floor or an outside broadcast ready to work.
Hands-on studio days
Work behind real cameras, desks and consoles instead of watching slides.
Industry-standard kit
Train on the control surfaces, lighting desks and IP workflows used by UK networks.
Small cohorts
Groups of up to twelve learners so every person gets time on the equipment.
Recorded masterclasses
Revisit every session on demand and prepare for the practical days at your own pace.
Workflow templates
Take away rundowns, patch sheets, lighting plots and checklists ready for your own productions.
Certificate of completion
Finish with a certificate and a portfolio project you can show to employers and clients.
