  This was the first company I volunteered my time in after returning from the states and it was time well spent. I was able to sit in with an offline editor and producer and discuss the work flow and process behind choosing case studies and contributors for channel 4 Dispatchers. I was able to see the process from production to edit and it gave me the initial taste to get back into working in Manchester and build on what I already know.
