  I worked in Telecine, and later VT (Shift 2), from 1981 until I left to go IT contracting in 1986.
This is a fantastice website - it brings back very happy memories! Happy to hear from anyone on shift 2 who was around in the early 80s!

  Worked in VT for 6 months in 1974 as part of my Industrial Training for a degree at Plymouth Poly. I was with Brian Jenkinson in VT Investigations. Had a number of projects, including final testing in Edit Suite 2 (thanks for the Rip - Scratch clip!) amongst other things.
I was back in 1991 working for IPK Broadcast doing the installation of the 2nd floor cubicles for Stage V, and again in 1994/5 installing Digital Betacam edit suites for BBC World.
Great to see all the old pictures of the basement - it all comes flooding back!
Now living and working in San Jose, California, 25 miles from the original Ampex factory in Redwood City. The sign is still there (it's a protected monument), but the factory's long gone.
Still in the broadcast business - just can't seem to shake it off!!

  Stumbled on this site and got sidetracked when I should have been doing something else! Joined Tel Rec in 1979 as a DE, worked in TK until 1981, then in VT Maint until 1983 when I went to TPC at LG as their VPR 'expert'!

  This site brought back so many memories of my days as a VT operator and editor in OZ, The 1970's BBCVT Xmas tape was a must have item back then as was all Xmas tapes, we should have kept them as they were the best.

  Thanks for a great site. I was good to see Brian Woodfield, who I had the pleasure of meeting when I attended a course at Franborough Tech where I was studying TV Production in 1992 or was it 1993!!!
Thanks for the insite into the world of VT
