SHU Media

Digital Media by Joseph May and Jess Mannion

Media at Hallam Union encompasses three areas:

• SHU Life, our monthly magazine, which allows you to write articles that are important to students.

• SHU Box, where you can get involved with producing videos about student life and interests.

• SHU Radio, which gives you the opportunity to gain a wealth of experience from broadcasting to editing.

Why get involved in SHU Media?

SHU Media is open to any student who wants to get involved in a creative, collaborative activity. You will be involved in every aspect of creating a magazine, radio show or video from initial concept creation right through to distribution.

If you are on a marketing or media related course then SHU Media will equip you with skills that will help towards your degree, CV and portfolio. But it is also a great way to meet people and have fun!

How do I get involved?

Getting involved in SHU Media couldn’t be more simple. Just email Helen Bodsworth, your Democracy and Communications Officer on uusdemocracy@shu.ac.uk or pop into The HUBS and state which area of SHU Media you want to get involved in.

Extra media related opportunities

There are other ways you can get involved with media related activities at Hallam Union. Have a look at the volunteering sections of this booklet. Also, if you have a particular interest in one of our other activities like sports or societies there might be ways where you can help us publicise those areas through different media for example creating a newsletter, magazine, press releases or promotional videos for these areas.

Exciting start to SHU Media…

Hey everyone,

I’m Helen and I’m the Democracy and Communications Officer. I oversee SHU Media, however it is completely student-led and run! Here, I’ll keep you up to date with everything SHU Media related and you can get in touch with me by emailing uusdemocracy@shu.ac.uk

I’ve just had a meeting with the Editors of SHU Life (our student magazine) and our Media Rep – Rachel Arthur. The ideas are rolling in and SHU Media is beginning to take great shape!

If you’re a budding media student or you just have a particular interest then check out the facebook pages we have…

We have 3 streems of media – SHULife, SHUBox and SHURadio
