Shane Nugent worked in the TVW videotape area from 1974 to 2004, during which time Channel 7 made the transition to colour.
Videotape equipment evolved considerably during this period from quadraplex two inch low-band black and white reel to reel, to two inch high-band colour reel to reel and cassette machines, which were then followed by one inch helicon scan facilities.
