History
Her first production was a Coffee House Session that got cancelled but it was where she first met the lovely Steph who persuaded her to keep going to more productions. She then camera operated for International Student Association Performance night. She then went AWOL whilst she tried out different societies, and mostly, didn’t like them.
After accidentally going to an admin meeting, she realised she wanted to be more involved on committee.
Her biggest step forward was running for Secretary in the 2018 elections and winning (to her surprise!) but then again no-one else ran. She then got more involved by attending Roses 2018 in Lancaster and meeting other stations.
She is so glad that she stuck with YSTV and had a great year as Secretary reading all the terrible spam emails and starting to produce more productions such as Sixty Seconds with STYCs. She also accidentally ended up producing an entire Halloween Livestream all because she wanted to do pumpkin carving.
YSTV has given her an amazing group of friends to make productions with and to spend time going on trips out such as YSTV goes camping. She was also the Training and Development Officer for Roses 2019 and has produced and directed a lot more productions in her second year.
The highlight of her time at YSTV is, of course, winning Best Broadcaster at NASTA 2019.
She was elected Production Director in the 2019 Elections and has overseen all the wonderful productions in the year from 2019 - 2020. Under her reign such productions were produced like Hunted: Episode 2, Quarantine Weekly, Lost, Please Sir There's Been a Murder and much more.
YEAR 1: 2017-2018
# | Show | Position | Description |
---|---|---|---|
1 | Coffee House Sessions | Camera Operator | Working as camera op one time or two? It was cancelled at least 50% of the time, but hey there was still free cider and this was where Olivia met Stephanie Shires. |
2 | ISA Cultural Performance Night | Camera Operator | Produced by Raquel Barta, Olivia signed up on the calendar and thoroughly enjoyed getting to be apart of the event and meet many more YSTV members. |
2 | Election Results Night 2018 | VT Operator | My first time with the 'big kids' in the control room getting to press the button to play the intro VT and count out the VTs, and witnessing Edwin Barnes enthusiastic directing. |
3 | Roses 2018 | Various Roles including Vision Mixing and Directing | She joined on the road trip led by to Lancaster and loved the chance to hop onto as many different live streaming roles as possible! This was where she first learnt of the chaos of all green and tangled SDI cables. Lots of coiling was done that weekend. |
4 | Love York Awards | Wireless Camera OP | Used the C100 for the first time and filmed the wireless shots of Love York Awards, learning very quickly how to operate the C100 and get the right shots. |
5 | A Killer Opportunity | Writer | Taking a lead to write for the 48hr challenge, with help from trusty team mate Thomas Schubert, making it her first written short film - a fake comedy commercial for the assassination company "Death Direct". |
6 | Micklegate Run: Soap Box Challenge | Camera OP | Joined Stephanie Shires and her trusty team to film the Micklegate Soapbox challenge, which was heaps of fun and she was very happy to be the 'ramp camera'. |
YEAR 2: 2018-2019
# | Show | Position | Description |
---|---|---|---|
1 | STYCs in Sixty (Actually Ninety) Seconds | Producer, Editor | This was her first time producing a video, throwing herself into the process with reckless preparation, but it was an excellent learning curve. The video was an informational video for freshers on how the STYC system works. The video features Thomas Schubert wearing a James College STYC shirt backwards, much to Edwin Barnes's chagrin. |
2 | Freshers Week 2018 | Vision Mixer | She hopped onto the Fresher's live stream every now and then to relieve tired crew but spent most of her time in D-bar hyping up YSTV with Stephanie Shires and handing out free magnets. |
3 | Election Results Night 2018 | VT Operator | My first time with the 'big kids' in the control room getting to press the button to play the intro VT and count out the VTs, and witnessing Edwin Barnes enthusiastic directing. |
4 | YSTV Does Come Dine With Me | Contestant | Olivia was a contestant on the show, cooking a delicious batch of pot noodles proceeded by mushy peas and cockles - alas, the show was never released. |
5 | Halloween Livestream 2018 | Producer/Director | After wanting to carve pumpkins Olivia accidentally fell into producing a 40 minute long Halloween Livestream alongside co-producer Natalie Harris. which saw URY and YSTV compete to win party games and yes, pumpkin carving. She was told it was remarkably well organised for a Livestream, much to her happiness. |
6 | Nouse Debate Night | Vision Mixer | She vision mixed the Nouse Debate Night, mixing between roughly 3 camera feeds and helping to set-up and pack down, learning the ropes of tech set-up. |
7 | Robbing Chloe | AD | She was AD for the later day of shooting for Robbing Chloe as written and directed by Thomas Schubert. |
8 | YSTV Trips Malham Cove | Participant | She didn't film anything, but she was there and that is what is important. |
9 | Boxing Fight Night | Graphics Op | Operating graphics like a pro at the Boxing and enjoying delicious pizza late into the night. Also helping rig and de-rig. |
10 | YSTV Sport | Various Roles | Olivia occasionally participated in the setting up and running of live streams such as the Floorball stream, now a more elite (or useful?) member of the production team. |
11 | Carols at the Minster | Producer and Editor | After enjoying the carol service in her first year, Olivia endeavoured to film the 2018 service, securing permission to film in the heritage building and collaborating with the Christain Union for the first time. It was a challenge to film and edit, but worth it to produce christmassy content. |
12 | YUSU Elections 2019 | Vision Mixer | Having graduated from VT Operator, she had her first high-stakes vision mixing job at the Elections, mixing between 8 different video feeds and various VTs. |
13 | #Bustice | Assistant Camera/Sound | Helping accompany Thomas Schubert to film YUSU Wellbeing Officer Steph Hayle's Bustice campaign, this was the moment that Dogs of York was born from Steph and Olivia's obsession with 'dogspotting' |
14 | YSTV Reports: The Bishy Weigh | Producer and Editor | Filming the sustainable plastic-free store in York, promoting environmental consciousness. And doing her degree with Thomas Schubert |
15 | Dogs of York | Producer and Editor | Due to her love of Dogs, Olivia and her trusty team including the wonderful presenter Steph Hayle, set out to film as many good doggos as possible. It was then released at the start of her third year, after going through the labour of love called editing. |
16 | YSTV Reports: Roman Festival | Producer | She was filming Dogs of York when the Roman Legion appeared - sparking her to chase the Roman's all the way to the festival at the museum gardens. She filmed things but alas it was never edited. |
17 | Roses 2019 | Various Roles | Although unable to attend more than the Friday of Roses, she helped out a little - setting up some streams and ferrying kit. |
18 | Love York Awards 2019 | Live Highlights Editor and Director | Directed the first half of the stream. Premiere Pro makes everything very stressful but she tried her best, editing the live highlights from the live feed to be shown at the end of the awards, helped by Thomas Schubert who wrangled premiere better. |
19 | YSTV Trips: Camping in Scarborough | Attended and drove the van | She provided much of the comical content with her stellar minibus driving, featuring the luggage falling out of the boot. To this day she blames Edwin Barnes. ALways blame Edwin. |
20 | URYSTV Sessions | Graphics Editor | A series of music sessions filmed by YSTV and recorded by URY and Olivia made the opening title graphics for and she still doesn't know what happened to this productioon. |
21 | Maths Skills Centre | Producer and Editor | As the newly elected Production Director, Olivia began to take on commercial projects, learning the ropes with an advertisement for the Maths Skills Centre. |
22 | Big D 2019 | Exec Producer and Camera Op | Filming lots of cool things at Big D. |
23 | Summer Ball 2019 | Executive Producer | This was her first big boi production, and she was executive producer overseeing all the productions to come out of the ball, as many members wanted to produce videos. The weather was terrible and the organisation fell apart a little. However, videos were made and it was enjoyable all the same! |
24 | Everything Sucks | Writer and co-Director | An idea that Olivia had been itching to make was made possible on this 48hr challenge, and with the help of Thomas Schubert at 2am the script was fully realised as a comedy following down-on-his-luck Derek. The script became lost in a laptop crash and the later rendition of the script for NASTA 2020 submissions was rewritten with the aid of Jacob Boyle, renaming the characters such as 'Kinky Man' and 'Sexy Male Protagonist'. |
