Freshers 2020 was highly difficult for YSTV, both in terms of recruitment and coverage, due to COVID-19.

YSTV Reports: The Forest

YSTV attended the opening of The Forest just before Freshers 2020. Although it wasn't branded as a Freshers video, it was used often throughout Freshers 2020.

Freshers' Round-Up 2020

This was the 2020 equivalent of the Freshers Livestream that would normally happen during Freshers Fair every year. It was hosted on 11 October 2020. It featured interviews with a wide range of societies, volunteering groups, sports clubs, Sabbs and other University staff. It was entirely pre-recorded and edited together then streamed out as-live, as due to COVID-19 restrictions, a proper livestream was deemed not feasible.

Campus Tour

Alize Akturk and Tilly Garland hosted a tour of East and West Campus showing off all the wonderful sights. This was limited in scope thanks to, you guessed it, COVID-19.

Freshers Fair

YSTV partook in both YUSU's In-person and online Freshers Fairs.

The online Freshers Fair took place across a single morning and involved Joe Radford sitting in a zoom call waiting for eager Freshers to come and ask questions about YSTV. It wasn't very well attended most likely due to poor marketing from YUSU.

The in-person Freshers' Fair, as opposed to most years when Freshers Fair takes place all over campus on one day, was hosted solely in The Forest and took place across a whole week. Each day a different set of societies, volunteering groups and media groups hosted stalls.

YSTV hosted their stall on the Media Groups and Performance Societies day.

The stall featured a variety of YSTV paraphernalia and an iPad playing YSTV videos on a loop.

Welcome Meeting

A welcome Meeting for YSTV took place online, with the initial talk portion being hosted on Zoom and the second 'social' quiz half being hosted on Discord.

Welcome Video

A showreel (with 3 variations in length) was produced for Freshers 2020. It was essentially a re-edit of the 2019 Best Broadcaster showreel with footage from Quarantine YSTV added in.
