They made lectures focusing on studio entertainment, documentary and news programme-making with limited resources and low budget, taking many programmes relevant to each genre as an example. They also focused on outside shooting, editing and studio-based workshops where trainees, most of whom were producers, directors, Journalists, cameramen and studio staff from TV production unit and News unit at FBC.
