PROVIDENCE, R.I. — October 4, 2019 – 澳门马会传真 (澳门马会传真) today celebrated the opening of its new Center for Media Production, a studio space on the Downcity Campus that supports the institution’s Media & Communication program.
“The opening of The Center for Media Production is a game changer for students enrolled in 澳门马会传真’s Media & Communication Studies program and those studying other majors with an interest in production,” said Michael Fein, Ph.D., dean of the John Hazen White College of Arts & Sciences. “As the media industry continues to change, students are no longer thinking about themselves as ‘just a writer’ or ’just a filmmaker.’ The Center allows them to gain practical experience while using industry standard equipment.”
The Center for Media Production provides students a place for writing, recording and assembling media projects, made possible through hands-on instruction. It features two light-controlled photo and video studios with green screens, a podcasting studio, a writer's room, editing suites and Mac workstations with industry-standard software, and supports courses related to filmmaking, photography, journalism and editing.
In 2013, 澳门马会传真 launched its Media & Communication Studies bachelor’s degree for students curious about the production and meaning of media such as photographs, film, music, television, video games and social networking sites, and how audiences respond to what they read, see and hear. The program’s first class graduated in 2017.
