Television studios

How is a television programme conceptualised and prepared? What is the role of all the people whose names appear in the credits at the end? What is a production department like? How are the visual illustrations that appear on the screen made? Why is the director considered to be the person who leads the programme?

Now you have the opportunity to have the answers to all these questions, and to see what goes on behind the scenes of your favourite programmes and take part in discussions with participants in cultural, economic and political programmes, like the “Forum des Européens”, “Esprit Libre”, “Ripostes”,“ Ce soir ou Jamais” etc

After attending the programme, you will be taken behind the scenes of the programme set, of “France Télévision” studios (or other studios), by Lydie, the person in charge of the public, who will answer your questions or ask the persons concerned to reply to them.

Some programmes are live, others recorded and it is essential to book in advance as places are limited.
