Quays News seems to be a programme produced by students at the Media City UK campus of the University of Salford Manchester.

You can see their sets and an example of the programming from the new facilities below.

We produce live news bulletins most days during term time. I believe the original intention was for it to air on Channel M but of course the channel has now shut down, so now it's streamed online and shown internally within MediaCity. All the bulletins are on the YouTube channel at http://www.youtube.com/user/QuaysNews. (If it wasn't clear already I am a broadcast student at Uni of Salford)


And interestingly you use the Old Calendar theme from just before they scrapped it in favour of the generic ITV theme. Good to hear it again.


If it is available and use was agreed fees would still be owed to the licence holder.

How legal is that? Are rights required?

Music rights have always confused me. I doubt ITV are going to go out of their way to sue a little student television group but what is the theoretical legal grounds?

The theme tune is indeed from our library music collection, which is fully licensed.


Do you have a link?

I'm afraid not as we have it on CD in our library music collection, but I believe you can find it in the KPM Music Library. I'm afraid I don't know the name of the specific track.

EDIT: It would appear TV Forum is blocking out the name of the collection. If you Google Play Production Music you can't go too far wrong Wink
