Why glowstarly

Learn from working broadcast professionals

Every glowstarly instructor still directs, mixes or produces live shows for UK broadcasters. You train with people who work the desk every week.

  • Real multi-camera decks

    Train on genuine broadcast switchers, not simulators, from your very first session.

  • Live comms & talkback

    Practise calling shots and directing crews through real intercom headsets under time pressure.

  • Control room management

    Learn to run the gallery: scheduling, crewing and keeping a live show on air, on time.
