Matt Ward-Perkins wanted an aerial shot for sports stuff and YUSU wouldn’t give us a cherry picker, so the dumb asses came up with this. We put it on grant, and no one has said stopped us yet, so I guess it’s happening. Anyone know what the terminal velocity of a C100 is?

It is well known that since the dawn of man, tech and computing departments have raged war on each other, bringing down pain and suffering to any production or admin department caught in the brutal crossfire. There is no exception to this within the hellscape of YSTV.

It is not uncommon to find members of Triple Threat grumbling and moaning whilst the TechyTubbies test the tensile stress of RAM sticks. These incidents are usually caused by the computing lads doing something unacceptable and unholy whilst unsupervised by the techies (usually because said techies are catching up on lost sleep rather than running OBs). Such cases include but are not limited to, slapping a Video Assist on an AC90, claiming that the AC90 is better in low light than the C100, and suggesting that an AC90 is a viable substitute for a cinema camera. There does appear to be a pattern here, doesn’t there?

All this is due to one lovely, but stubborn, Welsh bastard who has a real vendetta against functioning equipment. The Techy-Tubbies appreciate the work Mr Milling has put into the YSTV backend, but would kindly ask that he refrains from touching there stuff inappropriately, as they will; A) Piss on the server. B) Bring back Stream 4. Or C) Buy another C100.

The remaining two members of Triple Threat are not really as much of a nuisance as their leader, as Dom just seems permanently exasperated at the lack of any real coordination or communication within YSTV departments, and I haven’t seen Connor in a while, so I’m gonna assume he’s dead. RIP Connor
