Digital Media Lab: School of Arts & Sciences: Thomas College, ME

Expand Your Creative Horizons!

The Digital Media Lab, made possible by a generous donation from the Harold Alfond Foundation (Guaranteeing the Future), is available to the Thomas College community and provides a comprehensive set of media-focused tools for creativity, creation and learning.

The digital media lab is a fully equipped facility that provides a professional working studio space for photography, video, audio, and animation work as well as a space for post-production editing and processing of your media content.

The Lab is light-locked, sound-dampened, and includes a dedicated sound booth specifically focused on audio production and podcasting. There is also a video studio section with dedicated RGB lighting, audio capture set-up, and with multiple backdrops for chroma key (green screen) productions.

There are additional resource kits available through the Library at the circulation desk. Please visit the equipment Modules for more information about what is available.
