This was the year [[Peter Bowles]] was RAG president as well as involved in YSTV, so {{unsure|the first}} large scale coverage was organised. An XF30 5200 lumen projector was hired and used to project onto a screen on the left of stage, although could only really be seen for the last couple of hours of the event.  The stage was made up of two articulated lorries parked side by side on the bowl with YSTV based in a tent behind the stage.  YSTV ran a multiple-camera rig in front of and on the stage using hired cameras {{unsure| and the then newly built umbilical cables}}.  The event also saw the debut of the [[Bubbles|"bubbles" ident]], which was a holding graphic between sets - filmed by looking down a bubble tube!

Woodstock 2003 had to be held on Vanbrugh Paradise (the concrete near Central Hall) because building work was under way on the new Music Research Centre. This lead to a rather strange small stage in half a marquee, and no projection output, with YSTV just feeding the network of campus TVs.  This itself was not entirely successful as the 2.4 GHz system produced a very snowy picture, so Vanbrugh's TVs were plumbed in directly to the output.  The main products of 2003 were a few tapes of coverage that could be played back from the new [[Video Server]].  The coverage was produced by [[Ed Jellard]] and problematic in that about three quarters of the active members were about to graduate and so not very available.  Although the event lacked the usual atmosphere of Vanbrugh Bowl it did give rise to a spectacular light show at the end of the event, with Central Hall being used to host the lighting.
