At the conclusion thereof, the music is again raised to full volume for a few more bars. During all this activity, sets may be changed for any act that may follow.
Reports on the pattern configuration of the lighting units, micro phoning, or other production factors may be requested at this point by the distant director. Concluding observations or suggestions may also be made. Following the complete broadcast, a written report is prepared by the director. This includes tabulation of various technical readings, and the artistic observations on the merit of the camera shots and lighting. The body of the report consists, however, of one or two paragraphs summarizing the merit of the broadcast as a whole; procedures are formulated to prevent errors that may have been made by the operating staff. The report concludes with definite instructions to members of the staff involved, concerning constructional or operational changes that are to be made prior to the next broadcast and are to be subsequently tested during the next broadcast. This report is read by all concerned. It constitutes a running record of the television activities and has proved invaluable for correlating activities and for reference to the operational aspects of past performances. The sheets are retained and bound once a year. In combination with the transmitting log, the written announcements, and the scripts utilized in the performances, a complete record of television operations is obtained.
