STAMFORD DMD FACILITIES

In the Digital Media & Design Department, located on the second floor of the UConn Stamford campus building, DMD students enjoy exclusive access to contemporary learning spaces that include: an Advanced Computing (Alien) Lab, Film Production Studio, Media Cage, and Media Suite - a room dedicated to digital production and exploration! Our spaces host a variety of technology including: Davinci controllers, VR headsets, projection mapping equipment, as well as a wide selection of professional production gear for students to sign-out throughout the year.

 

Advanced Computing (Alien) Lab 2.55

This 16-seat lab features Alienware PCs with Intel i9 processors and Nvidia GPUs. Every station has a 4K 30in hub monitor that can connect to and power your laptop over USB-C, a large Wacom tablet, and speakers. From Unreal to After Effects, this lab has what is needed to unleash your creative potential. 

Film Studio 2.54

This small, professional film studio features a lighting grid and black, green, and white backdrop curtains. Perfect for interviews or green screen shoots, this flexible space is right across from the Media Cage making it easy to haul cameras, lights, and set up all your gear.

Media Cage 2.59B

Equipment includes: 4K video camcorders, Canon DSLR cameras and lenses, action cameras, 3D mapping cameras, LED and conventional light kits, tripods, portable audio recorders, and high-end lavalier microphones. The Media Cage, Media Suite, and Film Studio are managed entirely by student workers, who help students prep equipment and set up the space for special projects when needed.

Media Suite 2.59A

Whether collaborating on a film edit, taking a Davinci color correction class, or drawing on the large Cintiq tablet display, the Media Suite is a go to hang out for all DMD students.

Digital Media Conference Room 1.30C

DMD students, clubs, and faculty can easily meet between the Stamford and Storrs DMD programs, while also offering an opportunity to invite industry professionals from around the country to speak as part of our Digital Directions Speaker Series.

Launch Pad 2.56

This multi-use space is mostly used for our design history, theory, and strategy-based classes, but can be easily reconfigured to accommodate the needs of our dynamic program.
