Design and Media

Academic Media Production Specialists

Academic Media Production provides faculty with resources and professional staff for producing engaging, effective educational videos. We work with instructors in one of our on-site recording studios to capture lecture slides, audio, and video. With advance notice we can also travel to other locations on or off campus to record lab activities, field trip experiences, or other hands-on learning experiences.
