Producing a weekly TV magazine program such as Turning
Point is a huge challenge. There are so many decisions
to be made by the Turning Point team - such as what
features stories to produce, which music artists to
include in the line-up, who to interview and how much
time to allocate to each segment.
Much of the decision making is made by Producer,
Victor Oladokun; Line Producer, Sean Baxter; Managing
Producer, Rhonda Jewell; Director of Programming,
Sandra Smith; and a lot of creative and hardworking
interns and production assistants.
Another key members of the Turning Point production
team is Director, Jay Edjerton, who calls the shots
once taping gets underway in the studio. Also, a dedicated
and talented team of editors, camera men, floor managers,
lighting technicians, audio engineers, set designers,
make up artists and video tape operators ensure that
each episode of Turning Point entertains, informs
and inspires millions of our viewers.
