  • RTS Scotland Announces Winners of the 2021 Student Television Awards
    PRESS RELEASE THE ROYAL TELEVISION SOCIETY SCOTLAND ANNOUNCES WINNERS OF THE 2021 STUDENT TELEVISION AWARDS Glasgow, 1 June 2021 – The Royal Television Society’s (RTS) Scotland Centre last night celebrated the winners of its 2021 Student Television Awards, sponsored by STV. The awards ceremony was hosted by STV Entertainment Reporter Laura Boyd via STV Player last night, with all the outstanding winning entries also showcased in full on the platform. The RTS Scotland Student Television Awards celebrate the best audiovisual work created by students across the region in Animation, Scripted and Non-Scripted categories, with the judges looking for strong storytelling, creativity, innovation, outstanding visual and aural creativity with high-quality craft skills, and a strong emphasis on originality. For 2021, the nominees reflected the work from a range of talented students at Scottish institutions, with the winning teams of students from Glasgow Clyde College, City of Glasgow College and the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland. Simon Pitts, Chief Executive Officer of STV, said: “Supporting and celebrating the creative talent of the future is vital to us at STV, so we’re thrilled to once again be sponsoring the RTS Scotland Student Television Awards. The film-making prowess on display was hugely impressive, especially after the year our students have had, although I’ve come to expect nothing less from the fiercely talented bunch who enter these awards each year.” “I’m pleased that STV Player viewers will be given the opportunity to enjoy these unique short films, and I’m looking forward to continuing to work with RTS on supporting Scotland’s young creatives into the industry as part of our ongoing partnership.” All nominated and winning films are available on STV Player now, and the full ceremony is available to watch here.

  • Scottish Television
    Scottish Television Are those who work in television libraries and archives to be classed as critical workers? This was the question facing management at Scottish Television (STV), a public service broadcaster based in Glasgow, as the UK went into lockdown when the Coronavirus crisis hit. STV’s Media Centre Manager, John McVie, has the challenging role of servicing broadcast, STV Player (an online hub for STV content), newsroom operations and production needs at this difficult time. In normal circumstances, the Media Centre team is based on site, managing a collection of physical and digital video assets and providing services to all parts of STV. As an office-based operation the team has quickly had to adapt their services, with transmission the main priority (keeping STV on-air), alongside ensuring that the daily news output continues to be captured to STV’s archive systems and catalogued to usual standards. However, one consequence of the current news cycle is that the demand for archive material to be used in news bulletins has reduced, as the journalistic focus is on one story only, which has little need for archive footage to illustrate it. The Media Centre has introduced a roster system (and, as a consequence, a reduced service for news), with only one member of the team based on site each day, while others in the team work from home. Working on site now presents new challenges, as the rostered person cannot mix with other teams and must maintain social distancing, remaining isolated as much as possible while in the building. In addition, archive workers in transmission and news environments handle multiple tapes and machines per day.

  • Providing IPTV in the IMS Network
    MATEC Web of Conferences 210, 03004 (2018) https://doi.org/10.1051/matecconf/201821003004 CSCC 2018 Providing IPTV in the IMS network Ladislav Kockovic,1*, Ladislav Szeiff2 1, 2 Slovak University of Technology in Bratislava, Faculty of Electrical Engineering and Information Technology, Institute of Multimedia Information and Communication Technologies, lkovičova 3, 812 19 Bratislava, Slovak republic Abstract. Providing IPTV in the IMS network is increasingly a problem solved today. All households are gradually passing through innovation and slowly every equipment becomes the so-called intelligent or smart and can be connected to a private or public network where it can be monitored, configured, diagnosed and then repaired.. This same upgrading takes place in television, and its current output is in the form of IPTV (Internet Protocol Television) provided in the IP Multimedia Subsystem Network, a new generation network that provides both audio and video data. IMS has originated in 1999 for the 3GPP standard in the 5th edition when switching from a 2G network to a 3G network. It has supported the older GSM and GPRS networks, but also a new UMTS network. In the sixth edition, it also has began to work on WLAN networks, more voice-oriented, or speech recognition services. This paper focuses on the provision of IPTV (Internet Protocol Television) in the IMS (IP Multimedia Subsystem) network. The aim of our paper is to design IPTV services in the IMS network, define the IMS architecture and the IMS network components such as HSS (Home Subscriber Server), various types of CSCF (Call State Control Function), describe the functionality and services provided by IMS and IPTV and, finally, compare the quality of the IPTV service provided by our network and by network of selected operator.

  • And Public Health
    Medicine, the Market and the Mass Media It is sixty years since the end of the Second World War, but historians have only just begun to explore thoroughly the postwar history of health and its interwar antecedents. Most research and literature has focused on health services and the arrival of the NHS; where public health is concerned many historical surveys ignore the recent past and base their investigations on the nineteenth-century public health legacy. This collection opens up the postwar history of public health to sustained research- based, historical scrutiny. Medicine, the Market and the Mass Media examines the development of a new view of ‘the health of the public’ and the influences that shaped it in the postwar years. The book looks at the dual legacy of social medicine through health services and health promotion, and analyses the role of the mass media along with the connections between public health and industry. These essays take a broad perspective examining developments in Western Europe, and the relationships between Europe and the USA. Virginia Berridge is Professor of History and head of the Centre for History in Public Health at the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine, University of London. She has published books and articles on health and society in the twentieth century. Kelly Loughlin is a lecturer in History at the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine and the main focus of her research is the history of health and medical communications in the UK. Routledge Studies in the Social History of Medicine Edited by Joseph Melling, University of Exeter, and Anne Borsay, University of Wales at Swansea.

    2 Television and audio-visual content 2 2.1 Recent developments in Scotland BBC Alba BBC Alba’s drama series, Bannan, returned in 2016 for a new series, having been re- commissioned for a further ten episodes in 2015, and it received a nomination in the drama series category at the Celtic Media Festival 2015. In March 2016 the Scottish Government announced £1m of funding for MG Alba for 2016/17. The UK Government withdrew £1m of funding, not renewing the annual grant from the Department of Culture, Media & Sport. In April 2016 MG Alba welcomed the commitment to Gaelic broadcasting in the BBC White Paper, which stated that the BBC should maintain its partnership with MG Alba. MG Alba moved from channel 8 to channel 7 on the Freeview EPG, following BBC Three’s move to an online platform. BBC Scotland BBC Scotland’s coverage of the 2015 General Election included results broadcast live from every count across the country, while Reporting Scotland remained the most-watched news programme in Scotland. The Investigations team covered a range of issues including fracking, and doping in sport, and Catch Me If You Can received the Sport Story of the Year Award at the 2015 British Journalism Awards. STV In March 2016 STV launched an enhanced digital news service tailored for Scottish viewers, including a mobile app, featuring bite-sized video reports on local, international, UK and other news from a Scottish viewpoint. Local TV STV Edinburgh and STV Glasgow joined forces to cover the Edinburgh Festival 2015 in a live one-hour show transmitting each weekday evening; this was shared with local TV stations across the UK.

  • Statement 2011 [FINAL]
    Statement 2011 Overall strategy / major themes for the year STV continues to thrive as Scotland’s most popular peak time TV station and holds the broadcast licences for central and north Scotland, attracting more than 4 million viewers each month. With a strong, recognisable brand and a flourishing production arm we enter 2011 in the best position possible to create and deliver and unique, rich and relevant schedule for our viewers. 2011 will see Scotland complete its digital switchover process which has already been achieved successfully in the STV north region. This brings increased choice to all viewers including a DTT HD version of STV, the result of new investment in order to offer Scotland’s most popular peaktime service at the highest resolution. The digital business has been a huge success for STV over the past 12 months and we are looking forward to bolstering this throughout 2011 and further cementing STV’s reputation as Scotland’s digital media company. Remaining at the core of STV’s strategy is our ongoing commitment to our quality content and making that content available to our audiences whenever, wherever and however they want it through our STV Anywhere program. We offer Scottish viewers a service that is both relevant and unique to Scotland and increasingly available on multi platforms including DTT, DSAT & DCAB and HD. To complement our on air transmissions, we are developing new access for viewers via online websites such as the STV Player and YouTube and serving content to mobile and connected devices starting with iPhone apps and PS3 consoles.
