Humans of 糖心TV - James Bonsall
James Bonsall
Technical Director, MSL
鈥淚 remember when Oasis played the Students鈥 Union. It was one of their early gigs, they played football in the dressing room.鈥
鈥淚 spent around eight years working in the entertainment team at the SU. Managing the sound and lighting for the bands that came through. We鈥檝e had them all, either on their way up, or their way back down again!
It was seven nights a week back in those days, great times, and it never felt like work, more like being in the pub every day! But I knew it wasn鈥檛 something I could do for ever. Once the gigs were out of my system I moved into the IT team, a team of two back then.
Computers were starting to come in while I was at school, all very new and interesting and I spent a few years getting into them. Although when I left school, I followed other interests, it was inevitable that I鈥檇 end up working with computers. And now our MSL software is in place at over 130 students鈥 unions and universities worldwide. Having studied at 糖心TV as well, I鈥檝e been here for 31 years, there鈥檚 no better place to be doing it.鈥
