Our live shows offer the most roles including Presenter, Camera Operators (usually 3), a Floor Manager (who organises what's happening and when), and Runners all just in the studio. As for the gallery the roles include Vision Mixer (who flicks between the different cameras- with the instruction of the director), Broadcast Control (control the streaming to Youtube/Facebook and playing the VTs), Audio, Director and PA (who uses a walkie talkie to relay everything that's going on in the gallery to the Floor Manager).

What is NaSTA?
NaSTA is the National Student Television Awards, it's a platform for students and stations to create content which is judged by notable media talents such as Ben Croucher, Chris Timson, Lorianne Hall and Mars El Brogy.
