If you can describe what you want to say in one line, you're laughing. Audio
description's hard to boil down. I just said it was a soundtrack
accompanying the programme which provides input about what's happening on
screen.

If it was a news piece, they have very little room. My piece was a 1500word
feature, which gives you a lot more scope.

Paul's advice is spot on. You have a great deal of power to decide how you
want to be seen. Journalists are in a hurry and will swallow whatever is put
in front of them, particularly if you're articulate and concise in your
points.

This is the first lesson in the VICS Media Masterclass
