Meet the team! Our video-journalists are mo-jos – mobile journalists who spend most of their time on the road. You will probably see them out and about covering news and sports stories, equipped with the latest camera and editing equipment.
Our small team of editors are based in the Sky building in Gallowgate, Newcastle and we also have a base at Sunderland University. Most of the staff come from the Tyne and Wear area and are as passionate about the area as everyone else who lives here.
