Equipment / Furnishings
AV Studio
The AV studio has three studio cameras that guarantee outstanding image quality. Various backgrounds and effects can be displayed on the LED wall. A presentation desk and a teleprompter enable professional recording of presentations and e-learning content without having to look away from the audience. The control room makes it possible to monitor and control recordings in the studio in real time. As a result, video productions in the media centre achieve the highest quality standards. The studio and control room can also be used to broadcast events.
Newsroom
The newsroom is equipped with twelve powerful computers that can be controlled from the lecturer's desk. This makes the room ideal for software training. The workstations are equipped with Adobe Creative Cloud and Davinci Resolve and can be used by students and staff to professionally edit their audio and video projects.
Audio Recording
The two Audio Recording I / II function rooms are equipped with the latest technology for professional audio and video recording. Thanks to their excellent acoustics, the rooms are also ideal for recording podcasts or adding sound to videos.
Photo Studio
The photo studio is fully equipped with a cove, four remote-controlled flash lamps and a separate reflected light/transmitted light table. There are 20 system cameras in CMOS, full format and medium format available for photography on site or on loan, whose data can be processed directly or stored externally. The equipment is supplemented by mobile flash lamps and LED lights, which are used for reportages or shoots ‘on location’.
