[Videolib] Do your institutions have video studios in their library/libraries?
I'm interested in knowing how many of you have video production studios in your libraries. Either live recording facilities or editing/post production facilities. Could you please give me some idea of the kinds of projects you work on, what you interaction is with campus faculty and a general idea of the mission? We *do* have such a studio; it needs some upgrading but it is a nice facility. But we are reviewing it's overall purpose given recent directions in media making, and I'd like to get some comparative information from other colleagues about their sites. Even if some of you do not have a studio but have some opinions about the role of libraries in producing video/electronic media -- I'd like to get your input. Feel free to reply here if you think it is of group interest or reply to me off list and I can summarize later.

Re: [Videolib] Do your institutions have video studios in theirlibrary/libraries?
Our college’s Digital Media program is located in the same building as the library. And I have a senior multimedia specialist (who adjuncts for the aforementioned program) on my staff. He has multiple computers and software to assist us with production for our web-based tutorials and Blackboard instruction. He has been hoping to secure enough equipment/software to put into one of our larger study rooms for students who are not in the media program to use for their own productions. There is a lot of collaborate and cooperative work going on in our classrooms and they sometimes need access to resources to complete those projects. I think we have enough to market using a wide variety of media choices. And then there is always the Youtube approach—I know there is at least one that was shot on a webcam right here in the library, in one of the carrels!

Randal- We have a Digital Media Design Studio in our library. Here is a link. http://www.lib.neu.edu/about_us/digital_media/ We are a Mac-based dept. and have small audio and video production studios, which get heavily used. We provide a walk-in service and collaborate with faculty and their classes to facilitate the creation of student curricular multimedia projects. We work with Library's development dept. to record and edit author talks which get placed on YouTube. We consult with faculty and staff who are creating pieces for their websites, and/or full-length videos. We work in concert with two other non-library faculty-focused media production facilities on campus. Feel free to contact me if you have any questions. Debra Debra H.

Re: [Videolib] Do your institutions have video studios in their library/libraries?
Wasn't someone (Shelly McCoy?) putting together a list of who offered these services? We also have a Media Lab: http://library.unlv.edu/media/medialab.html We have 3 high-end PCs which include video capture hardware. We have 1 staff dedicated to running the lab. Projects run the gamut. Some people just want to convert personal VHS to DVD. A lot of editing of video shot for class projects. Most projects are pretty straight-forward. We were without a person in this position for a while and are only now getting back up to speed and trying to promote these services.

Re: [Videolib] Do your institutions have video studios in their library/libraries?
We have a dedicated iMac with Final Cut Express and iMovie available. We also have an old Legacy microphone amp to provide voice over ability, and I want to expand the abilities as I find other equipment to augment what we have. I want to have a spot for kids who are not in Film Studies can have access to create projects. We also have several iMacs in our library that have iMovie and we will lend them cables to hook up cameras if necessary so they can use those to edit as well. No actual shooting studio, but I would love to create such a room. regards jhs John H. Streepy Media Services Supervisor Library-Media Circulation James E.

Re: [Videolib] swank
I manage a campus movie theater, so my programmers routinely purchase PPR from Swank and with other distributors. From my experience the price quoted by any film distributor (including Swank) may be determined by several things: the size of your University or student body, the number of seats in your venue, the number of audience members you expect to attend, whether or not you plan to charge admission (charging admission will raise the price of PPR), how many times or days you plan to show the film, the age of the film, the popularity of a film. For instance, a new, popular film usually costs much more than an old, unpopular film. If you expect 50 people to attend, you may pay less than if you expect 700 people to attend (with Swank you will have to submit an audience report to verify your attendance). Very small documentaries are often very inexpensive, but sometimes a small independent film will cost as much as a popular blockbuster. All that being said, you can sometimes negotiate a better price for a film. Many distributors would rather make the sale than not, these days. Your success will depend upon your relationship with your distributor. Let me know if you need further information. Sandra Sandra F.
