Seasoned broadcast cameraman Tom Poederbach guided the participants through DSLR shooting and editing with practical tips & tricks. Afterwards the participants evaluated the material and discussed the shooting practicalities.

The shootings took place at daylight in the vicinity of the EBU headquarters and at night, to allow evaluation under different light conditions. The nightshoot took place in the beautiful town of Yvoire (France), which celebrated a national festivity that day.
