Fusion was the brainchild of YSTV member [[Pete Nichols]], and first happened in 2005. It brought together societies on campus and off-campus groups to present an evening of Dance and Fashion items in Central Hall. Much was made of the possibility of taking a [[Battle of the Bands]] style projection rig to the event, but they ultimately came to nothing, and YSTV's only involvement was to supply equipment and crew to a 2-camera DV shoot done by [[Kate Rushworth]] and [[Jen Ayrst]]. This was subsequently edited and sold on DVD by [[Pete Nichols]], but never shown on YSTV because of copyright issues with the music used. | Fusion was the brainchild of YSTV member [[Pete Nichols]], and first happened in 2005.

YSTV was brought in to run a three-camera live rig feeding projectors either side of the stage area. Output was a mixture of live video, pre-recorded VTs produced by the Cinematography Society, and live graphics produced by Nez Savaskan. The latter were luma keyed over the video at the last minute following a flash of inspiration by one of the producers, [[Richard Ash]]. The other producer was [[Sarah Leese]], continuing a partnership from [[Woodstock]] the year before. YSTV recorded the show, but again copyright issues prevented it from being broadcast either live or later. Cinematography shoot footage for the DVD produced, although the latter part of the second half is composed of YSTV footage after they failed to have enough tape to record the entire event. | ||
By 2007 the event was running for two nights the week before [[YUSU_Election_Nights|YUSU Election Night]] and it was judged to be too much work to watch an entire dress rehearsal (taking notes), and then do both nights. Cinematography were up for it however, so YSTV leant them the [[Panasonic Max]] to do the job. | By 2007 the event was running for two nights the week before [[YUSU_Election_Nights|YUSU Election Night]] and it was judged to be too much work to watch an entire dress rehearsal (taking notes), and then do both nights.
