Zoom For Thought: Series II: Episode 4: Riverside Reflections: Jake Taylor
Update: 2021-03-07
Description
This week's episode features Jake Taylor, Operations Director for Riverside Studios in London. Since opening in 1933, Riverside Studios' rich heritage includes the original filming of 'Dr Who,' and the venue has hosted luminaries from the world of music including the Sex Pistols (before they were the Sex Pistols), David Bowie, Amy Winehouse, 'Top of the Pops' and the annual 'Hootenany' with Jools Holland.
Jake reflects on the way the venue, which re-opened after a major refurbishment, has found itself ably suited to the current demand for livestreaming and engaging audiences with online content, including most recently a series of filmed marathons and unique shows by Eddie Izzard; the impact of the pandemic on working practices and exploiting digital platforms; and the way society has changed and people have perhaps become more respectful of others.
Theme: Partita no.2 in D minor by JS Bach; Olivia Harris-Harding, violin
