Mac Video Lab
| The goal is for students to tell compelling stories. We want the technology to help that process, not get in the way. |
| -Dr. Stephen Lee, Former Department Chair/Associate Dean |
Located on the first floor of the Arts and Sciences Building, Room 132, the Mac Video Lab was designed for the use of students in the course Comm 30-Intro to Digital Filmmaking. Students involved in our Radio Journalism and Television Journalism courses make use of the lab, too.
Each of the eight Apple® Mac G5 computers is equipped with Apple's ILife production suite, Adobe® Photoshop Elements, Avid® Xpress Pro and Apple® Final Cut Pro. Every machine is connected to an Avid® LANShare EX video server.
Communication students enrolled in video production classes have 24-hour access to the editing facilities and can reserve them for four-hour blocks. Other communication students who have demonstrated proficiency with the equipment may make arrangements with faculty to schedule the equipment for projects.
