Beeb life update...

Just a quick update to let everyone know that I am a month into my BBC Blast Creative Traineeship, as a Broadcast Assistant at Radio One!

I can hardly believe how quickly the time has gone, I have done a number of different duties, some of which I have never undergone before so it's brilliant to try new things and have an insight into how the station operates.

I'm hoping to visit Newbeat whilst i'm here and possibly get some written reviews up on the online music news pages, as I am keen to try out new areas of work and keep my written skills in tact (/practice them...!!)

A video I helped to film, of Kid Harpoon in session was up on the Radio 1 website for a while, I am hoping to get a copy of it from the team - but here's where you can find out a bit of info about the session:

At the moment i'm looking for a project to undertake for the Arts Award. I could simply document my time here, but I'd like to go beyond that and create a mini-project, perhaps a mini-documentary about the station and it's current position...I have ideas - it's just putting them into a workbook, playing them out and putting together the final product! Not tough then, ha. Here's the site:

Calvin Harris is coming on the show tomorrow - which should be funn! :)

Beyond that I have done a fair bit of sightseeing, but need to do more (London is massive though, I could spends days writing a 'must-see' list alone.)
