&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
Schools and universities are seeking to improve their audio and video 
capabilities to attract and keep the best students. They are building classrooms 
with interactive whiteboards and video equipment that allow teachers to give 
more interactive multimedia presentations and to record lectures.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Employment of broadcast technicians is expected to grow 9 percent from 2010 
to 2020, while employment of sound engineering technicians is expected to grow 1 
percent. The television and motion picture industry will continue to need 
technicians to improve the picture quality of shows and movies. The industry is 
installing the latest technologies, such as digital or 3D screens, in movie and 
home theaters and is converting existing theaters to new formats.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
However, growth will be slowed by consolidation of radio and television 
stations and by technological improvements that will increase the productivity 
of technicians. Laborsaving advances, such as computer-controlled programming, 
may result in fewer broadcasting positions needed to produce the same number of 
programs.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;

Job Prospects&lt;/h3&gt;
Competition for jobs will be strong. This occupation attracts many applicants 
who are interested in working with the latest technology and electronic 
equipment. Many applicants also are attracted to working in the radio and 
television industry.&lt;br /&gt;

Those looking for work in this industry will have the most job opportunities 
in smaller markets or stations. Those with hands-on experience with electronics 
or with work experience at a radio or television station will have the best job 
prospects. In addition, technicians are expected to be versatile and contribute 
to the set up, operation, and maintenance of equipment, whereas previously 
technicians typically specialized in one area.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: inherit; font-weight: normal;&quot;&gt;Most broadcast and sound engineering technicians have an associate’s degree 
or vocational certification, although some are hired with only a high school 
diploma. Some formal training, gained through either work experience or 
education, is often required.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;

Education&lt;/h3&gt;
Audio and video equipment technicians need to have at least a high school 
diploma or a General Educational Development (GED) certificate to be eligible 
for entry-level positions. However, many also have an associate’s degree or 
vocational certificate.&lt;br /&gt;
Technical training for audio and video equipment technicians may take several 
months to a year to complete. In this training, they get hands-on experience 
with the equipment they will use in many entry-level positions. Coursework and 
practical experience from a high school or college audiovisual club can prepare 
a student to be an audio and video equipment technician.&lt;br /&gt;
Similarly, broadcast technicians need at least a high school diploma or a 
GED, although many also have some college education or a vocational training 
certificate in a related field. Because of the competitiveness of the industry, 
an associate’s or bachelor’s degree in broadcast technology, electronics, 
computer networking, or a related field can help a technician&#39;s career.&lt;br /&gt;
Sound engineering technicians usually complete a vocational program, which 
may take up to a year. Many technicians have an associate’s degree.&lt;br /&gt;
Prospective broadcast and sound engineering technicians should complete high 
school courses in math, physics, and electronics and need to have excellent 
computer skills to be successful in this field.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;

Training&lt;/h3&gt;
Technicians who have work experience and formal training in their field will 
have the best opportunities for a job. Because technology is constantly 
improving, technicians often enroll in continuing education and receive 
on-the-job training to become skilled in new equipment and systems. On-the-job 
training may include topics such as setting up cables, testing electrical 
equipment, learning the codes and standards of the industry, and following 
safety procedures.&lt;br /&gt;
Training for new hires can be accomplished in a variety of ways, depending on 
the types of products and services the employer provides. Although some formal 
apprenticeship programs do exist, more frequently a new technician will 
accompany a more senior level technician to get the training and skills 
necessary for advancement.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;

&lt;strong&gt;Certification&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
Although not required by most employers, earning voluntary certification may 
offer advantages in getting a job as a broadcast or sound engineering 
technician. Certification allows employers to be sure that the technician meets 
certain industry standards and has kept up to date with new technologies.&lt;br /&gt;
For example, the &lt;a class=&quot;external&quot; href=&quot;http://www.sbe.org/&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Society of Broadcast Engineers&lt;/a&gt; offers eight broadcast 
engineering certifications, two operator certifications, and a broadcast 
networking certification, each of which requires passing an exam. Similarly, &lt;a class=&quot;external&quot; href=&quot;http://www.powerofav.com/&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;InfoComm 
International&lt;/a&gt; offers an audiovisual Certified Technology Specialist 
credential.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;

&lt;strong&gt;Advancement&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
Although many broadcast and sound engineering technicians work first in small 
markets or with small stations in big markets, after they gain the necessary 
experience and skills they often transfer to larger, better paying radio or 
television stations. Large stations almost never hire someone without previous 
experience, and they value more specialized skills.&lt;br /&gt;
Experienced workers with strong technical skills can become supervisory 
technicians or chief engineers. A college degree in engineering is typically 
needed to become chief engineer at large television stations.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;

&lt;strong&gt;Important Qualities&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Communication skills.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; Technicians need to 
communicate with supervisors and coworkers to ensure that clients’ needs are met 
and that equipment is set up properly before broadcasts, live performances, and 
presentations.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Computer skills.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; Technicians use computer systems 
to program the equipment and edit audio and video recordings.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Manual dexterity&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/strong&gt; Technicians set up audio and 
visual equipment and cables which requires a steady hand and good hand-eye 
coordination. Others adjust small knobs, dials, and sliders during radio and 
television broadcasts and live performances.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Problem-solving skills.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; Technicians need to 
recognize problems with the equipment and propose possible solutions to them. 
Employers typically desire applicants with a variety of skills who are able to 
set up equipment, maintain the equipment, and troubleshoot and solve any 
problems.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Technical skills.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; Technicians work with and repair 
a variety of electrical, electronic, and mechanical systems and 
equipment.&lt;br /&gt;

The median annual wage for broadcast and sound engineering technicians was 
$39,870 in May 2010. The median wage is the wage at which half the workers in an 
occupation earned more than that amount and half earned less.&lt;br /&gt;

The median annual wages for broadcast and sound engineering technician 
occupations in May 2010 were the following:&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;$47,080 for sound engineering technicians&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;$40,540 for audio and video equipment technicians&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;$35,120 for broadcast technicians&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
Technicians working in major cities typically earn more than those working in 
smaller locations.&lt;br /&gt;

Technicians usually work full time. Some may occasionally work overtime to 
meet broadcast deadlines or set up for live events. Evening, weekend, and 
holiday work is common because most radio and television stations are on the air 
24 hours a day.&lt;br /&gt;

Technicians who work on motion pictures may be on a tight schedule and may 
work long hours to meet contract deadlines with the movie studio.&lt;/article&gt;

&lt;/div&gt;
Employment of broadcast and sound engineering technicians is expected to grow 
10 percent from 2010 to 2020, about as fast as the average for all occupations. 
Growth is expected as businesses, schools, and radio and television stations 
demand new equipment to improve their audio and video capabilities.&lt;br /&gt;

As a result, employment of audio and visual equipment technicians is expected 
to grow 13 percent from 2010 to 2020. Audio and video equipment is in demand in 
many buildings, where technicians set up new equipment or work to upgrade and 
maintain old systems. More companies are increasing their video budgets, 
including increasing the use of video conferencing to reduce travel costs and 
communicate worldwide with other offices and clients.&lt;br /&gt;

An increase in the use of digital signage for schools, hospitals, and hotels 
also will lead to higher demand for audio and video equipment technicians.&lt;br /&gt;

Schools and universities are seeking to improve their audio and video 
capabilities to attract and keep the best students. They are building classrooms 
with interactive whiteboards and video equipment that allow teachers to give 
more interactive multimedia presentations and to record lectures.&lt;br /&gt;

Employment of broadcast technicians is expected to grow 9 percent from 2010 
to 2020, while employment of sound engineering technicians is expected to grow 1 
percent. The television and motion picture industry will continue to need 
technicians to improve the picture quality of shows and movies. The industry is 
installing the latest technologies, such as digital or 3D screens, in movie and 
home theaters and is converting existing theaters to new formats.&lt;br /&gt;

However, growth will be slowed by consolidation of radio and television 
stations and by technological improvements that will increase the productivity 
of technicians. Laborsaving advances, such as computer-controlled programming, 
may result in fewer broadcasting positions needed to produce the same number of 
programs.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;

Job Prospects&lt;/h3&gt;
Competition for jobs will be strong. This occupation attracts many applicants 
who are interested in working with the latest technology and electronic 
equipment. Many applicants also are attracted to working in the radio and 
television industry.&lt;br /&gt;

Those looking for work in this industry will have the most job opportunities 
in smaller markets or stations. Those with hands-on experience with electronics 
or with work experience at a radio or television station will have the best job 
prospects. In addition, technicians are expected to be versatile and contribute 
to the set up, operation, and maintenance of equipment, whereas previously 
technicians typically specialized in one area.&lt;br /&gt;

Broadcast and sound engineering 
technicians work with a variety of electronic and recording 
equipment.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
Broadcast and sound engineering technicians held about 116,900 jobs in 2010. 
Their employment was distributed among the detailed occupations as follows:&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;table class=&quot;ooh-tab-table&quot;&gt;
&lt;tbody&gt;
&lt;tr&gt;
&lt;td width=&quot;270&quot;&gt;Audio and video equipment technicians&lt;/td&gt;

&lt;td align=&quot;right&quot;&gt;19,000&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;
Broadcast and sound engineering technicians typically work indoors in radio, 
television, movie, or recording studios. However, some work outdoors in all 
types of conditions to broadcast news and other programs. Audio and video 
technicians also set up audiovisual systems in offices, schools, government 
agencies, hospitals, and homes. The following table shows the industries 
employing the most broadcast and sound engineering technicians in 2010:&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;table class=&quot;ooh-tab-table&quot;&gt;

&lt;tr&gt;

&lt;td align=&quot;right&quot;&gt;10&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;tr class=&quot;odd&quot;&gt;
&lt;td&gt;Performing arts, spectator sports, and related industries&lt;/td&gt;
&lt;td align=&quot;right&quot;&gt;10&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;tr&gt;
&lt;td&gt;Educational services; state, local, and private&lt;/td&gt;
&lt;td align=&quot;right&quot;&gt;9&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;
Technicians doing maintenance may climb poles or antenna towers, and those 
setting up equipment do heavy lifting.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;

Work Schedules&lt;/h3&gt;
Technicians typically work full time. Some may occasionally work overtime to 
meet broadcast deadlines or set up for live events. Evening, weekend, and 
holiday work is common because most stations are on the air 24 hours a day.&lt;br /&gt;

Technicians who work on motion pictures may be on a tight schedule and may 
work long hours to meet contract deadlines with movie studios.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;li&gt;Convert video and audio records to digital formats for editing&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Install audio, video, and sometimes lighting equipment in hotels, offices, 
and schools&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Report and repair equipment problems&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Keep records of recordings and equipment used&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
These workers may be called broadcast or sound engineering technicians or 
operators or engineers. At smaller radio and television stations, broadcast and 
sound technicians may do many jobs. At larger stations, they are likely to 
specialize more, although even their job assignments may change from day to day. 
They set up and operate audio and video equipment, although the kind of 
equipment they use may depend on the particular type of technician or 
industry.&lt;br /&gt;
Although some of the duties of broadcast and sound engineering technicians 
are similar, there are some differences.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Audio and video equipment technicians&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; set up and 
operate audio and video equipment. They also connect wires and cables and set up 
and operate sound and mixing boards and related electronic equipment.&lt;br /&gt;
Audio and video equipment technicians work with microphones, speakers, video 
screens, projectors, video monitors, and recording equipment. The equipment they 
operate is used for meetings, concerts, sports events, conventions, news 
conferences, as well as lectures, conferences, and presentations in businesses 
and universities.&lt;br /&gt;
Audio and video equipment technicians may also set up and operate custom 
lighting systems. They frequently work directly with clients and must listen to, 
understand, and provide solutions to problems in a simple and clear manner. In 
addition, many audio and video equipment technicians are self-employed and must 
spend time marketing their practice to prospective clients.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Broadcast technicians&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; set up, operate, and maintain 
equipment that regulates the signal strength, the clarity, and the ranges of 
sounds and colors of radio or television broadcasts. They operate transmitters 
to broadcast radio or television programs and use computers to program the 
equipment and to edit audio and video recordings.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Sound engineering technicians&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; operate machines and 
equipment that record, synchronize, mix, or reproduce music, voices, or sound 
effects in recording studios, sporting arenas, theater productions, or movie and 
video productions. They record audio performances or events and may combine 
tracks that were recorded separately to create a multilayered final product. 
Sound engineering technicians operate transmitters to broadcast radio or 
television programs and use computers both to program the equipment and to edit 
audio recordings.&lt;br /&gt;

artists&lt;/a&gt;, a type of sound engineering technician, can be accessed from the 
&lt;em&gt;Occupational Outlook Quarterly&lt;/em&gt;.)&lt;br /&gt;
The following are examples of types of broadcast technicians and sound 
engineering technicians:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Recording engineers&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; operate and maintain video and 
sound recording equipment. They may operate equipment designed to produce 
special effects for radio, television, or movies.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Sound mixers&lt;/em&gt;,&lt;/strong&gt; or &lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;rerecording 
mixers&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;,&lt;/em&gt; produce soundtracks for movies or television 
programs. After filming or recording is complete, these workers may use a 
process called dubbing to insert sounds.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Field technicians&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; set up and operate portable 
equipment outside the studio—for example, for television news coverage. This 
coverage requires so much electronic equipment, and the technology is changing 
so rapidly, that many stations assign some of their technicians exclusively to 
news.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Chief engineers, transmission engineers&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;, and 
&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;broadcast field supervisors&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; oversee other technicians 
and maintain broadcasting equipment.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;td align=&quot;right&quot;&gt;19,000&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;
Broadcast and sound engineering technicians typically work indoors in radio, 
television, movie, or recording studios. However, some work outdoors in all 
types of conditions to broadcast news and other programs. Audio and video 
technicians also set up audiovisual systems in offices, schools, government 
agencies, hospitals, and homes. The following table shows the industries 
employing the most broadcast and sound engineering technicians in 2010:&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;
Technicians doing maintenance may climb poles or antenna towers, and those 
setting up equipment do heavy lifting.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;

Work Schedules&lt;/h3&gt;
Technicians typically work full time. Some may occasionally work overtime to 
meet broadcast deadlines or set up for live events. Evening, weekend, and 
holiday work is common because most stations are on the air 24 hours a day.&lt;br /&gt;

Technicians who work on motion pictures may be on a tight schedule and may 
work long hours to meet contract deadlines with movie studios.&lt;/article&gt;

How to Become a Broadcast or Sound Engineering 
Technician &lt;a class=&quot;thickbox about-this-section noprint&quot; href=&quot;http://www.bls.gov/ooh/Media-and-Communication/Broadcast-and-sound-engineering-technicians.htm#TB_inline?height=325&amp;amp;width=325&amp;amp;inlineId=about-become-one&quot; jquery1338356486269=&quot;40&quot;&gt;About this section &lt;/a&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
Most broadcast and sound engineering technicians have an associate’s degree 
or vocational certification, although some are hired with only a high school 
diploma. Some formal training, gained through either work experience or 
education, is often required.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;

Education&lt;/h3&gt;
Audio and video equipment technicians need to have at least a high school 
diploma or a General Educational Development (GED) certificate to be eligible 
for entry-level positions. However, many also have an associate’s degree or 
vocational certificate.&lt;br /&gt;

Technical training for audio and video equipment technicians may take several 
months to a year to complete. In this training, they get hands-on experience 
with the equipment they will use in many entry-level positions. Coursework and 
practical experience from a high school or college audiovisual club can prepare 
a student to be an audio and video equipment technician.&lt;br /&gt;

Similarly, broadcast technicians need at least a high school diploma or a 
GED, although many also have some college education or a vocational training 
certificate in a related field. Because of the competitiveness of the industry, 
an associate’s or bachelor’s degree in broadcast technology, electronics, 
computer networking, or a related field can help a technician&#39;s career.&lt;br /&gt;

Sound engineering technicians usually complete a vocational program, which 
may take up to a year. Many technicians have an associate’s degree.&lt;br /&gt;

Prospective broadcast and sound engineering technicians should complete high 
school courses in math, physics, and electronics and need to have excellent 
computer skills to be successful in this field.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;

Training&lt;/h3&gt;
Technicians who have work experience and formal training in their field will 
have the best opportunities for a job. Because technology is constantly 
improving, technicians often enroll in continuing education and receive 
on-the-job training to become skilled in new equipment and systems. On-the-job 
training may include topics such as setting up cables, testing electrical 
equipment, learning the codes and standards of the industry, and following 
safety procedures.&lt;br /&gt;

Training for new hires can be accomplished in a variety of ways, depending on 
the types of products and services the employer provides. Although some formal 
apprenticeship programs do exist, more frequently a new technician will 
accompany a more senior level technician to get the training and skills 
necessary for advancement.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;

&lt;strong&gt;Certification&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
Although not required by most employers, earning voluntary certification may 
offer advantages in getting a job as a broadcast or sound engineering 
technician. Certification allows employers to be sure that the technician meets 
certain industry standards and has kept up to date with new technologies.&lt;br /&gt;

For example, the &lt;a class=&quot;external&quot; href=&quot;http://www.sbe.org/&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Society of Broadcast Engineers&lt;/a&gt; offers eight broadcast 
engineering certifications, two operator certifications, and a broadcast 
networking certification, each of which requires passing an exam. Similarly, &lt;a class=&quot;external&quot; href=&quot;http://www.powerofav.com/&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;InfoComm 
International&lt;/a&gt; offers an audiovisual Certified Technology Specialist 
credential.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;

&lt;strong&gt;Advancement&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
Although many broadcast and sound engineering technicians work first in small 
markets or with small stations in big markets, after they gain the necessary 
experience and skills they often transfer to larger, better paying radio or 
television stations. Large stations almost never hire someone without previous 
experience, and they value more specialized skills.&lt;br /&gt;

Experienced workers with strong technical skills can become supervisory 
technicians or chief engineers. A college degree in engineering is typically 
needed to become chief engineer at large television stations.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;

&lt;strong&gt;Important Qualities&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Communication skills.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; Technicians need to 
communicate with supervisors and coworkers to ensure that clients’ needs are met 
and that equipment is set up properly before broadcasts, live performances, and 
presentations.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Computer skills.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; Technicians use computer systems 
to program the equipment and edit audio and video recordings.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Manual dexterity&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/strong&gt; Technicians set up audio and 
visual equipment and cables which requires a steady hand and good hand-eye 
coordination. Others adjust small knobs, dials, and sliders during radio and 
television broadcasts and live performances.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Problem-solving skills.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; Technicians need to 
recognize problems with the equipment and propose possible solutions to them. 
Employers typically desire applicants with a variety of skills who are able to 
set up equipment, maintain the equipment, and troubleshoot and solve any 
problems.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Technical skills.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; Technicians work with and repair 
a variety of electrical, electronic, and mechanical systems and 
equipment.&lt;/article&gt;

The median annual wage for broadcast and sound engineering technicians was 
$39,870 in May 2010. The median wage is the wage at which half the workers in an 
occupation earned more than that amount and half earned less.&lt;br /&gt;

The median annual wages for broadcast and sound engineering technician 
occupations in May 2010 were the following:&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;$47,080 for sound engineering technicians&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;$40,540 for audio and video equipment technicians&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;$35,120 for broadcast technicians&lt;/li&gt;

&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
Employment of broadcast and sound engineering technicians is expected to grow 
10 percent from 2010 to 2020, about as fast as the average for all occupations. 
Growth is expected as businesses, schools, and radio and television stations 
demand new equipment to improve their audio and video capabilities.&lt;br /&gt;

As a result, employment of audio and visual equipment technicians is expected 
to grow 13 percent from 2010 to 2020. Audio and video equipment is in demand in 
many buildings, where technicians set up new equipment or work to upgrade and 
maintain old systems. More companies are increasing their video budgets, 
including increasing the use of video conferencing to reduce travel costs and 
communicate worldwide with other offices and clients.&lt;br /&gt;

An increase in the use of digital signage for schools, hospitals, and hotels 
also will lead to higher demand for audio and video equipment technicians.&lt;br /&gt;

Schools and universities are seeking to improve their audio and video 
capabilities to attract and keep the best students. They are building classrooms 
with interactive whiteboards and video equipment that allow teachers to give 
more interactive multimedia presentations and to record lectures.&lt;br /&gt;

Employment of broadcast technicians is expected to grow 9 percent from 2010 
to 2020, while employment of sound engineering technicians is expected to grow 1 
percent. The television and motion picture industry will continue to need 
technicians to improve the picture quality of shows and movies. The industry is 
installing the latest technologies, such as digital or 3D screens, in movie and 
home theaters and is converting existing theaters to new formats.&lt;br /&gt;

However, growth will be slowed by consolidation of radio and television 
stations and by technological improvements that will increase the productivity 
of technicians. Laborsaving advances, such as computer-controlled programming, 
may result in fewer broadcasting positions needed to produce the same number of 
programs.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;

Job Prospects&lt;/h3&gt;
Competition for jobs will be strong. This occupation attracts many applicants 
who are interested in working with the latest technology and electronic 
equipment. Many applicants also are attracted to working in the radio and 
television industry.&lt;br /&gt;

Those looking for work in this industry will have the most job opportunities 
in smaller markets or stations. Those with hands-on experience with electronics 
or with work experience at a radio or television station will have the best job 
prospects. In addition, technicians are expected to be versatile and contribute 
to the set up, operation, and maintenance of equipment, whereas previously 
technicians typically specialized in one area.&lt;br /&gt;
