UK - For two days every year, Ravensbourne College in Kent stages its annual broadcasting event, Rave On Air. The college has some notable ex students including Stella McCartney, Bruce Oldfield and Darren Woolfson, now group director of technology at Pinewood Studios.

Adrian Curtis, VP of Sales for Soundcraft Studer said: "We were contacted by the college to help them with a console for a mixture of live and broadcast applications, given the breadth of requirements they had, we loaned them our flagship Vista 5 SR to cope with these demands."

Rave On Air is an entirely student-led event with over five hours of live programming broadcast over the internet and local digital terrestrial television channels (800 and 801). Attended by broadcasting and creative industry professionals including BBC, Endemol and Channel 4, this graduate showcase gives Ravensbourne students the chance to gain experience of creating and delivering a range of content for broadcasting in real-time. It is also a major opportunity to showcase Ravensbourne talent and help students network and build industry contacts that prepare them for a broadcasting career after they graduate.

Freddie Gaffney, deputy head of the Faculty of Communication Media said: "Rave On Air is a great opportunity for our students to stand out from thousands of other graduates across the country. The students this year have met the challenge head on and they've really excelled themselves and can justifiably call themselves young professionals. As always, I am very proud to be associated with them."
