Media Production Studios
If you want to record audio or video using professional-grade equipment, book one of our Media Production Studios. These studios are set up for creating whatever kind of media you can imagine. The audio studio includes two microphones and a sound mixing board. The video studio has a teleprompter, light boxes, and a high-quality tripod. You can check out a camera and microphone from the Information/Checkout Desk or use your own phone or camera.
Both studios include high-performance Macs for editing, or you can save your files and use our Media Lab to edit your work.
Studios can be booked on our website and are available for SSU students, faculty, and staff whenever the library is open at no cost.
