My Role
I was delighted to return as Script Editor for the BBC News IAB Digital Upfronts 2023.
This prestigious event was presented by award-winning BBC News journalist Lucy Hockings at the BBC Radio Theatre in London.
My role as Script Editor started a month before the live event. I worked with all of the guests to distill their ideas into clear and concise scripts, allowing them to focus on their stage performance.
I was on location for the rehearsals and this is when I wrote the presenter's links. During the live show I was in charge of the final script and liaised with the Autocue operator and show director.
Highlights
Highlights included an interview with Deborah Turness, CEO of BBC News, and a demonstration of a rebuilt bbc.com which offers more live events for international audiences and new opportunities for brands and partners.
Famous Faces
Lucy was joined on stage by BBC Analysis Editor Ros Atkins, BBC Radio 2 DJ Rylan Clark and Strictly Come Dancing - It Takes Two presenter Fleur East.
Both Fleur and Rylan spoke about their incredible transformations from X Factor contestants to primetime TV and radio presenters
