Welcome to YSTV!

Yes, founded in 1967! (Glasgow were the first in the UK.)

You will need to buy membership if you decide to get involved for the whole year - if you're not sure if YSTV is for you, come along to our welcome meeting or a free 'Give it a Go' session (check the Events section of this page). You can also come along to two productions for free before committing to membership.

Membership is £7 for the year and helps fund our productions and equipment. If membership fees would be a barrier for you, check if you are eligible for the York SU Activities Access Grant.

Anything and everything! We are open to any pitches for shows and can help you make whatever you would like. Previously we have produced, sports livestreams, TV dramas, a multi-season sitcom, video reports, entertainment shows, and much more.

Come along to our weekly Production Meeting (every Tuesday at 8pm in room G/N/020). Each week we have a pitching session where we discuss ideas for new shows and take you through the steps to making it a reality. Alternatively, if you'd rather not share your idea in a meeting, you can fill out the pitching form that will be linked on Slack.

Check the calendar on our internal site, it has all the available crew roles for upcoming productions. If you see a role you're interested in that's free, just hit the "Sign Up" button! Don't worry if you've never done it before, just ask the producer and they'll be happy to help you learn.

In the Maths Building in James College, on Campus West. Go to the Roger Kirk Centre or the Students' Union building and follow the signs.

We own a variety of professional grade equipment by brands such as Blackmagic Design, Canon, Behringer, Panasonic, RØDE, and others. We have a full studio with a lighting rig and separate control room, as well as several outside broadcast units for events around campus. We also write our own software, including this very website!

Don't worry if you've never touched any of it before though, we'll happily teach you how to use it all!
