Mediazone Handbook Updates – Have landed!

With the Spring Semester under way – Mediazone has updated the Handbooks for all of our major sections. You will find useful step by step information on the major lending equipment as well as tutorials for using Avid & Wavelab. Many new details have been added with plenty of screen shots. Also by the middle of next week – “Quick reference guides” will be found in the bags of all the Sony pd-170cameras and the Tascam recorders for student convenience. These Handbooks are  your best resource when using equipment & facilities in Mediazone. Remember – its up to you to dive in and grab hold of the tools that we provide for you!

Thanks go to Lab Assistants  Andreas Christophorou, David Kababian as well Mediazone Engineer IT E.S.

It has everything you need to get students through their practical courses in the Communications Department as well as its promotional features, such as: Handbooks, facility & equipment descriptions & the courses related to them, uploaded student work & much more! Below is the breakdown for the past semester:
