In collaboration with the British Esports Federation, students from the University Campus of Esports are being given the opportunity to lead the production of the British Esports Student Champs Open Division weekly streams for the upcoming 2023/24 season.
The British Esports Student Champs is the UK’s largest esports competition for schools and colleges, giving students the opportunity to get into the competitive sector from as young as 12-years-old.
This tournament has divisions in Overwatch 2, VALORANT, League of Legends, Rocket League, and new for the 2023 season, Street Fighter 6, and Apex Legends. These new titles have been added to the competition as Cup tournaments, meaning that they will run concurrently with the main Student Champs.
Students from the University Campus of Esports will take on senior and junior roles within the broadcast team for weekly streams, with these roles including Replay Operator, Producer, Caster, Observer, and Graphics Operator.
The bespoke on-site broadcast facilities, provided by Storm Broadcast, will be utilised to produce these streams, and get students comfortable with industry-standard equipment.
This collaboration will allow for students to gain first-hand experience in various roles associated with esports production and broadcasts, whilst also building their portfolio.
Streams will be taking place throughout the academic year on the British Esports and Student Champs Twitch channels.
