<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif">A long time ago, in a galaxy far far away......<br>
<br>
A Pres Control secretary called Fran decided to leave the department, back in the days when leaving was pretty much unheard of. Presentation Editor Granville Jenkins had bought himself a video camera, and set out to make a video of everyone saying goodbye
to Fran.<br>
<br>
Somehow, long ago, I was given a copy of the rushes. I don't remember what format they were on, probably second or third generation VHS, nor do I remember why, but I recently found a DVD copy in amongst much other stuff lying around here. I've done a rather
late edit. Much of the material was given to "Goodbye Fran" stuff, but Granny often started recording early and stopped late. The bits round the edges form lots of tiny character vignettes which, much, much later, are fascinating. Some people only got to say
the goodbye bit - not too relevant now - but I still wanted to put them in, so they a slomo-ed. Granny also covered much of the places we worked and the gear we used, and that adds a context.<br>
<br>
I don't know if Granny ever did a edit, but his experience must have been a lot different to mine. I'm sitting here at home in front of the free version of Blackmagic Da Vince Resolve, so reversing the last shot, laying multiple audio tracks, trimming a word
or sentence, and adding titles (in BBC Washington typeface), was the work of seconds. How the world has moved on.
<br>
<br>
Anyway - if you were there, and even if you weren't, please enjoy this visit to BBC TV Centre and it's presentation department, when, in hindsight, it was at it's peak.
