reasons why he had chosen to do his course (Computer Science) at York University due to his keen interest in photography and video. In his first year he was involved in such productions as [[Campus Today]] and [[Jim'll Sodomise You]] before the studio was closed in June 1993. He was so upset at this that he created the [[Closure]] promo to try to get fellow students to sign the petition to re-open YSTV. | reasons why he had chosen to do his course (Computer Science) at York University due to his keen interest in photography and video.

He was voted in as Production Director at the beginning of the 1993-94 university year. This was an awkward time due to a lack of studio but everyone pulled together and still managed to make a few recorded programes (see [[Middletons]]) and live shows (see [[Children In Need 1993]] and [[Election 93]]). It was a relief however when the new studio opened making it far easier to make programmes. | [[Image:19950311_central-hall_mark-hansgate.jpg|thumb|left|Mark Hansgate camera operating in Central Hall]]He was voted in as Production Director at the beginning of the 1993-94 university year.

He was voted in as Production Director again at the start of the 1994-95 university year. During this time he can take significant credit for converting a large proportion of new recruits in to regular members. He achieved this by preparing a set of programme formats (such as [[Week by Week]], [[Soapwatch]], [[SU, Lies and Videotape]]) which would run in week 1 on different nights. This allowed new members to find a programme to work on which would fit in with their busy life as a fresher. Weekly production meetings took place to discuss up-coming filming and I’m sure many people have fond memories of these, especially the ones where Mark actually turned up! | He was voted in as Production Director again at the start of the 1994-95 university year.
