Best Broken News Story - NUS Affiliation

This report informed the viewer of all the information they needed from one of the most important debates in union policy in the last 3 years. It focuses on the debate about whether York should remain part of the NUS, and also includes the other important motions in the Union General Meeting (UGM). The external interviews were filmed during the day before the evening debate. All footage was immediately captured and edited after the end of the meeting, with the report going online the same night. The quick turnaround meant the report was online before voting opened, and before both other student newspaper articles. Consequently, the report was the primary source of information for students that wanted to know what happened. This video now has 348 hits to date.

Best Event Coverage - Roses 2011

Roses 2011 saw one of the most extensive and ambitious event coverage of the year, with more events and more sports covered than ever before. This included sending a team to Sheffield for a special report on the snow-sports events for the first time ever, alongside footage from water-polo and swimming. This is particularly important as very few students can attend such events, so bringing the outside sports to the masses was a significant achievement. YSTV produced 3 live shows on the Friday, 4 on the Saturday and a unique live show from Central Hall balcony on the Sunday before linking directly to live coverage of the entire closing ceremony. YSTV also produced multi camera coverage of the opening ceremony and rugby match at Huntingdon Stadium, which saw our coverage broadcast on multiple screens throughout the bars and Hospitality Suites across the stadium as the event happened. YSTV also worked hard to accommodate LUTube.tv, Lancaster’s student television station. Working hard with teams constantly filming, editing, reporting on all of the major sports and many more besides. This also facilitated the production of a further live show from Lancaster, with members of the team working hard to get edited packages and footage over. This highlighted the importance of the event coverage. As the largest inter-varsity sporting tournament in the country, students from both Universities watched YSTV’s shows and features. Special reports were made on the history of Roses, anticipation of the main rugby match, interviews with Student’s Union sports presidents from both Universities, team captain catch-ups, rules of alternative sports, the atmosphere of the event, and how students were enjoying the weekend. YSTV also achieved live link ups to the main sports fields including interviews with sports teams, media representatives, and Students Union representatives. Aside from the main camera work, editing and reporting done across this event, YSTV had a special website, roses2011.com to keep viewers up to date with the scores and the alternative media coverage along with a purpose made Roses clock for the live stream whilst live shows were not being broadcast.

Open Category - YSTV Best Broadcaster

The Best Broadcaster piece was submitted for the student TV awards 2011 (NaSTA). This won the highly commended Best Broadcaster award, naming YSTV the second best Student TV Station in the UK, gaining the same marks as the winner. Judged by top media representatives, the comments were: ‘Large variety of programming of great relevance to their audience. Intelligent, innovative use of social media, and a widening of the station's influence made for a very positive year.’ Graham Little – Freelance Broadcaster (BBC/RTE/SKYSPORTS) ‘Very comprehensive broadcaster with wide range of coverage and good presentation’ Mark Linsey, BBC, Controller, Entertainment Commissioning ‘Totally gripping 10 minutes, fast paced without losing the viewer, clever editing on creative content illustrating good use of location and impressive appreciation of the importance of good sound as well as vision.’ BBC, Deputy Director of News and Head of News Programmes It was painstakingly edited together to represent all that is best about YSTV from across the year and the hard work and effort that goes into producing quality television on a very limited budget. This is by far the biggest achievement YSTV has had across the past year, and since 2006 when this was last achieved. It has established YSTV incredibly well for the next year, where the goal is to build on such a success and be named the best student television station in the UK.
