Media Center Video Creation Space

Lights, Camera, Learning!

A video creation space in your school's makerspace allows students to experience everything from writing and drafting, to acting, filming, editing, sound engineering and more. Collaborative tables give students room to work on storyboards or plan projects, and technology tables offer a space for digital work. Flexible seating let's students easily arrange themselves into groups and a large, open area make it easy to use AV equipment or set up a green screen.

What Makes a Great Video Creation Space

For Students

The video creation space should give students access to technology, software and AV equipment, as well as spacious tabletops with comfortable seating they can use for group work and planning sessions. Open space should be available for filming or rehearsals.

For Teachers

The video creation space should feature open walkways, so they can easily move from one student group to another. Spacious work areas should be available for students to use while writing or planning. Ample storage keeps AV equipment and other supplies secure and organized.

For Administrators

The video creation space should be furnished to meet the goal of their facility. Products must be readily available and delivered on time. Installation should be quick and efficient.
