 Steven produced [[YSTV's Fresher's Guide to York]], which damn near killed him. With a 19 week production he claims that it's the longest production that YSTV has ever undertaken, well, second to [[Man Man]] thanks to [[Simon Harris]]' glacial editing speed. The production involved working with the university on a level unparalleled in YSTV memory and, if Steven's warnings are heeded, never will again. He managed to convince the university to let him show 'typical' rooms and spent the whole of the summer term 2010 devoting a bit too much time into getting into as many rooms as possible, often with a camera! [[YSTV's Fresher's Guide to York]] went live online Thursday 12th August 2010 and after a hail of complaints from Langwith and Derwent colleges, a newer improved version was launched on 16th August with the tagline "now with 100% more Langwith and Derwent!" The video was placed onto the university accommodation website and most of the college JCRCs wanted their part on their sites.
-As [[Station Director]] Steven worked with Commerical Services at the University to get YSTV onto the screens on campus, to build on the success of [[Woodstock]] 2011. He also formed close links with the new [[TFTV]] department, and through them got YSTV involved with [[local TV]], although this was subsequently abandoned under later [[station director]]s. He worked alongside the Charities Commission to safeguard [[Children In Need]] against ultra-virus laws, and helped relaunch the show in 2010 live from PX/001. He opened up links with the local community, pioneering the Freshers Roadshow and [[Fresher's Prize Draw]] the first of which happened in 2010, with the top prize being a hamper from Bettys that he had somehow managed to blag, along with 5 years worth of Yorkshire Tea that kept appearing in the studio! He also organised and produced the central film for the [[Children In Need]] show, '[[The Yorkshire Pass Challenge]], by working alongside Visit York. He won the [[Greg Dyke]] Award for Contribution to Student Media at the 2011 YUSU Awards.

 Whilst [[Station Director]] Steven worked with [[Alex Balmer]] to encourage as many new shows to be developed as possible. It was under his time as [[Station Director]] that [[The York Link]], [[TUC]], [[Spotlight]], [[The Sound Lab]], and [[Student Kitchen]] all premiered. [[The York Sport Show]] was also re-launched by [[Sarah Pickles]]. In 2011, YSTV won highly commended [[Best Broadcaster]] at the 2011 [[NaSTA]] Awards, as well as best Technical Achievement.
