Context

I joined DPÜ TV while studying visual communication design and stayed for four years. Weekly programmes, university productions and live broadcasts followed real schedules, so the work had to be completed for transmission rather than for a classroom presentation.

Editing and motion

I worked on editing, visual effects, title sequences, programme graphics and other post-production tasks. The work had to remain clear on broadcast screens and fit the timing of each programme.

Camera and live broadcast

The role also included camera work, scripting and live broadcast production. Working across both production and post-production made the connection between what is captured and what can be completed in the edit much clearer.

What this period established

The role gave me a production habit that still matters: finish the work for a real deadline and solve the problems that appear only when it leaves the editing timeline.
