I just got a WOW $$$ state of the art BIG radio and I should be able to pick up the signal from over here now.

Don't forget to talk to us normal folks once you make the big time

Congrats

Surely BBC Oxford has an online feed, Dean?

Excellent Dean, well done. Please tape it and post (as mp3 or whatever) be fun to hear !

well done Dean, and well deserved.

It's always good to see insane people getting on in life

Yes its all a bit crazy at the mo.

The radio producer was under the impression from my, get this 'Press release' that I was a seasoned BBC NHU camera person. After I told her the 'real me story' the interviews now only 1 min long and thats with a break

It will be online and Im going to get a recording for my MA !!!

Dean, make sure you post a boot-leg clip online! Also have you been practising your radio voice?

Chris Moyles's ratings are gonna take a downward blip tomorrow.

The BBC news film crew are coming to mine at 11am tomorrow to do my TV debut..

We are going to do a piece at home with my awards on show then have me in shorts and green t-shirt (typical wildlife cameraman attire) with camera, walking through the cotswold countryside chatting and looking like a Pro what me with my reputation...

I wanted me in bed with a few glamour girls dressed in rubber..oh well

Hi all,

What a strange day...

Radio interview went well. I was a little nervy at first but as soon as I got into the studio..all was fine.

The presenter was researching off of 2 year old material and announced I was 36 years old..My cousin said later that he though I'd gone all 'Hollywood' and was lying about my age already .. I thought the questions were going to be about pike but one included the devastation of chemicals being pumped into our surrounding oceans What the fook !!! still I got on my high one about environmental depletion of fish stocks and he stopped me in my tracks Still in hind sight I could have swung it to the effect climate change seems to be having on our freshwater fish..Oh,well you live and learn.

Still the producer said I came across pretty well so there you go..

TV Interview was interesting as I thought it would be like 'well read thread above for thoughts' but nah..she only had twenty mins tops and we did a piece in my office with my awards on show..Just a journo/ cameraperson and me..Still it was fine and she was helpful. Hopefuly I'll come across as an ordinary person with a passion and dream...

Oh by the way she was using a Sony PD150...

There you go..my day in the life of a up and coming filmmaker..

Always pissed me off in radio and TV interviews that you had very little control over the content, and then especially when they edit things, one thinks 'Did I say that' or 'That's not really what I said'.

Congratulations though, I hope they don't screw it up in editing and it comes across the way you want it.

Radio interview link?? Come on mate!

Cheers, Simon

Dean, just saw the interview on TV mate - excellent stuff

you didn't look a day over 36, I'd swear

Cheers Steve...

I'm on the wrong aerial in downtown Chippy so I couldn't watch it.. How did I come across ???? It was only one take so I was a bit worried.

Simon, I think you can get it on the 'radio Oxford' website if they have a listen again feature..

you have nothing to worry about Dean - it was a good interview, and presented as a nice story.

you came across relaxed and unpretentious - and no sign of nerves either.

Top job

Steve

Cheers Steve,

Thanks for the postive comments

A friend sent me a copy yesterday...

Being a little self-critical i did notice some minor things..And the way it was edited didn't make much sense in the last piece of the interview. But I suppose thats me being a perfectionist

Still not bad for the first time in front of a camera..
