The Story So Far...
Liz Cattermole has worked for 22 years in the television industry in a number of capacities. The place she felt most at home was behind the editing desk.
Liz started working at Brisbane Television station Channel O (now Channel 10), in1984, she worked her way from Scheduling to Telecine, to Film and finally the Editing department.
"I suddenly felt as though this was where I belonged. It was one inch and film projector's in those days and I loved the fact that it wasn't a desk job, you ran around all day feeding the film, loading the tapes, the cart machine. You came home exhausted with oxide on your clothes. It was so much fun".
In 1988 Liz boarded a plane for the UK and started work at a fledgling London broadcaster, British Satellite Broadcasting (now BskyB British Sky Broadcasting). Working across a variety of genres, from Sport to Movies, to Promo's and Music Liz honed her skills.
In between Liz's love of music spurred her on to begin a fanzine entitled 'Something From Your Inside'. Taken from the lyric of a Sidi Bou Said song it encapsulated what she wanted to achieve from the mag; a verbal vomit, something from inside. Instead of going the obvious route of most fanzines and having them handwritten with photocopied sheets she laid out the pictures and text on Publisher (a new bit of software way back then) and printed the magazine with a glossy front cover. It ran to 6 issues but they were fabulous and fun. She managed to see a whole host of upcoming bands for free and decided that she liked being on guest lists with a 'plus one'.
Liz also has a keen interest in film and completed a 2 year Extra Mural Diploma in Film Studies at the Birkbeck College in London.
However editing continued to fascinate and when Liz returned to Brisbane she completed a TAFE course on Web Design to keep up with the latest techniques.
Editing is very much a computer driven occupation these days. It has turned into a desk job but one which affords much creative freedom. Given the right equipment there is no end to what you can produce.
