Natalie van Wyk: Outside broadcast controller

Ingrid Booysen
An outside broadcast controller is a professional who is responsible for overseeing and coordinating the technical aspects of outside broadcasts in television and radio production.

An outside broadcast refers to a live production that takes place outside a studio or production facility, typically at a remote location.



“I am responsible for managing and coordinating the technical aspects of outside broadcasts in television and radio production. My main role is to ensure the smooth operation of the broadcast and to oversee various elements involved in the production,” Natalie van Wyk said.



“With the technicians, I ensure that all equipment is in proper working order and that it is set up correctly at the outside broadcast location.”

She added that she enjoys being an outside broadcast controller because there are different challenges every week.
