UCT Television (UCT TV) established remote audio production services to continue recording news podcasts for UCT news shortly after the lockdown started. This is a continuation of a collaboration between the UCT Communications and Marketing Division (CMD) and UCT TV. The podcasts are embedded in the corresponding news articles and published on the UCT news page, giving the audience an option to listen to the articles or download the podcast to listen to offline instead of reading them.

Two films by UCT film and media students were nominated in the Best Student Film category of the 2020 South African Film and Television Awards happening in March this year.
