York Revelation Rock-Gospel Choir have let's us film their rehearsal and had written a song specifically for Pudsey. They are do a few other song including Lion King. The VT last over 15 minutes so it could fill the 2 hour time and [[Kenric Yuen]] not sure which too pick (as the spontaneous Lion King with Pudsey is great). At the end it work out quite well and gave quite a bit of a break for the crews.

Did you say talking ducks? Ah, the magic of television. For this VT, Amy and Sarah wrote a script entirely consisting of duck puns that they managed to wring out of unsuspecting friends and family, and then filmed some ducks on campus, and finally recorded voiceovers.


*Children in Need Charity Spotlight: The Island
[[File:SarahatTheIsland.png|thumb|300px|Sarah interviewing children at The Island's youth mentoring scheme]]
We wanted to showcase a local charity that receives funding from Children in Need, so we contacted three, and The Island replied. Matt and Sarah set up a time to go interview the charity director at his office. The main issues that came out of this, were that two cameras would have been better for getting an establishing shot and closeups at the same time, and that carrying heavy equipment downtown on the bus is not fun. We arranged a second date to visit one of the fortnightly youth clubs that The Island runs, in order to interview some of the children and get some b-roll. The main issue at this second shoot was that we brought the wrong camera battery with us, luckily we also had a DSLR that we were able to use instead. In the future, it would be good to triple check equipment before leaving the station. Also, it would be a good idea to bring a boom mic if you are interviewing children.

*Pudsey Quidditch
=Fundraising=
Sarah and Matt took two cameras and Pudsey to a game of Quidditch with the Hogyork Horntails and had a beary good time. Only one camera was used in the end, and both the warmup and the game were filmed, with Pudsey substituting for the Quaffle in many shots. There were not too many challenges...one camera worked well enough, and Matt did a good job tracking the fast play of the game. The team were really enthusiastic about having Pudsey play for the afternoon!


*[[YSTV 3Peaks]]
The Fundraising for Children in Need 2015 mainly is with the just giving website (https://www.justgiving.com/Childreninneed2015/) , which have £110 of donation. The other source of donation come from Pudsey Parade, which collect £42.3. The total raised this year therefore is £152.3


*Bear Banter
Amy wrote and filmed this VT in an afternoon, with her friends playing the various roles. It was a quick and easy shoot and edit, and a good opening to the show. Bear in mind that the puns are painfully funny!


*Luxo Jr. Band
Amy and Robyn recorded Luxo Jr. playing three songs and ended up using one of them for the show. The band recorded their song on their own sound equipment, which made the quality very nice.

=Fundraising=
There were two parts to the fundraising campaign for YSTV's Children in Need broadcast in 2014; the first was completing the Three Peaks Challenge (and filming it, which involved carrying a lot of heavy equipment), and the second was running around campus in Pudsey onesies and asking people to take selfies with Pudsey. See information under the VT category above for more about the Three Peaks Challenge. The "take a selfie with Pudsey" campaign was relatively successful...it involved a visit to The Glasshouse on Heslington East, and walking around Heslington East, visiting various housing blocks. Most people were willing to take a picture with Pudsey and donate some spare change. In the future, setting up a booth in a heavier-traffic area might be a good idea. And maybe not asking people in their pyjamas nursing hangovers to have their picture taken!
We created a Just Giving fundraising page (https://www.justgiving.com/YSTV-CiN2014/) for the Three Peaks Challenge, and raised £609.
We also created a Just Giving fundraising page for the live broadcast (https://www.justgiving.com/Childreninneed2015/),
