What We Do
The Digital Media Center supports the use and creation of multimedia in education, scholarship, and creative expression. Towards this end, we provide hands-on training, consult with patrons on digital projects, and offer access to the essential tools for creating digital resources such as web pages, digital images, digital video, digital audio, PowerPoint presentations, and animations.
At the DMC, you may:
- * Scan slides, documents or images, including oversized objects
- * Capture or digitize video, edit it using FinalCut Pro or Premiere
- * Digitize audio from record, tape, mini disc, or CD, and edit it using SoundForge
- * Record narration, a conversation, or a song with Logic or Audacity in our sound editing booth.
- * Check out a digital camera, digital camcorder, minidisc audio recorder, edirol digital audio recorder, microphone, or tripod. Please note that you must supply your own recording media (e.g. miniDV tape, minidisc, DVD, etc).
- * Create your own DVD-Video with DVDStudio Pro
- * Duplicate DVDs or CDs (up to 25 copies at a time) with Disc Publisher.
