Our Media Arts facilities support our many classes in Visual Communications, including both electronic media and graphic media, as well as courses supporting the PR/Advertising and other Communication major programs, with significant hands-on opportunities to learn by creating projects using the tools of the trade.

"The editing lab was a huge help to me in learning how TV and film production and post-production work. Since Reinhardt has its own studio and master control, I had the opportunity to see behind the scenes and to experience how everything works in broadcasting. These are very useful skills to have in the real world. "

 Opportunities for Student Work-Study

The McCamish Media Arts Center employs a number of students each year through the work-study program to help with all of the audiovisual needs of the Falany Performing Arts Studio. What better way to learn about how to set up, light, shoot and edit a production than to get lots of practice on a regular basis as a student worker?
