Produced by [[hist:Emma Bew|Emma Bew]], the show was originally planned to take place in the Roger Kirk Centre (James College) in a similar manner to [[OB:Children in Need 2011|Children in Need 2011]]. However, several acts and societies that were meant to perform pulled out at the last minute. This led to the decision being made (in a tense nearly-full committee meeting at [[hist:84 Thief Lane|84 Thief Lane]]), with less than 48 hours to go, to relocate the show to the YSTV Studio and redesign it accordingly. '''This was the best decision made on an OB in a long time'''. The techies rejoiced as it meant nothing had to be disassembled, carted about and reassembled twice in two days!

Though the [[vision path|vision]] and [[audio path]]s were pretty much built earlier in the term for TUC and remained in place, very little technical setup was done until the morning of the show. The techies and keen people turned up at approximately 09:30 - raising the set boards, moving and gelling the lights, laying the umbilicals and associated cables, bodging [[Wedge]] (commms) into place, fighting with the [[CORIOgen Eclipse|CORIOgen]] and setting up mics for an open mic set. The set boards were covered in cut out circles of sugar paper of varying sizes (by Emma, [[hist:Chris Wall|Chris Wall]], [[hist:Liz Pascoe|Liz Pascoe]] and others) with set and lighting design by [[hist:Greg Ebdon|Greg Ebdon]], [[hist:John Caine|John Caine]] and [[hist:Robert Walker|Robert Walker]].

The de-rig (which wasn't full, as all control room-side equipment and the presenter set boards were kept for imminent future use) was done in record time due to a high number of crew remaining behind. The entire society was out of the building and locked up by 23:30! The live show was all capture to edit 1 straight out of the DAs and placed in Pending Edits ready for on-demand editing.
