Facilities

The environment in which we work is important: the new Digital Arts Centre has been designed to give an impression of light and space, but not at the expense of working areas or flexibility. Our Centre works very well as a learning and production facility, as the University had the foresight to allow the staff to specify the space, based on their own experience, whether as lecturers, practitioners or technicians. In addition, the accommodation throughout has been finished to a high material specification.

A large foyer and well-lit landing on the first floor allow exhibition and reception areas, so that students can exhibit their work within the Centre.

The sound recording studio, offering 360 square feet of performing space, is big enough to house a band for a music video, or a group of actors for a radio drama. Next door is the sound editing room of the same size. The academic and the technical team are housed in offices within the Centre and this allows ready access by students and visitors.

Resources within the Digital Arts Centre are available for outside hire. These are itemised, with rates, on our website.

On both the ground and first floors are computer rooms that together offer over 1,700 square feet of space for digital graphic and web design, multimedia, video editing and both 2D and 3D animation.

The digital video studio is designed to professional broadcast specifications and provides 1,200 square feet of usable space. It has a high ceiling with a controllable lighting rig and a control room with talkback for multi-camera productions.
