The Center for Innovation in Teaching & Learning's DIY Video Recording Studio is a self-serve recording studio for video content creation located in Rm. 120A inside of Building C. This studio is similar to the DIY Video Recording Studio located in EWFM Library and allows users to record (and practice) presentations, lessons, interviews, and a host of other types of video content with just the press of a button and without any previous video production experience. As this room is only accessible via card swipe access for pre-approved users, its ideal use is for classes, long term projects, or faculty and students looking to create content on an ongoing basis. For single use or occasional need for DIY video recording, the studio in EWFM is recommended.
If you are an instructor or student who has a need for accessing the Building C video recording studio, please contact your Instructional Technologist or submit an Instructional Technology help request via the form at http://www.lehigh.edu/help.
