University Park (Pollock)

Faculty Multimedia Center and Studio 204 moving to Pollock Building

The Faculty Multimedia Center and Studio 204 digital media production studios will be temporarily closed Sept. 24-30 during their move to the second floor of Pollock Building, University Park. They will be back in operation beginning Oct. 1 in freshly renovated surroundings. During the move, faculty and students can continue to make appointments or receive assistance by calling 814-574-9721 or visiting Studio 204’s temporary location at the University Learning Center, 7 Sparks Building. The Faculty Multimedia Center will no longer be located in Rider Building II. This move will bring the faculty and student studios together in a single location near the center of campus, as part of the Digital Commons initiative of Teaching and Learning with Technology, a unit of Information Technology Services.

Faculty Multimedia Center

Using multimedia has the potential to help your students better understand the topics you teach. But what if you don't have the expertise to produce multimedia content for your class?

At the FMC, you can work with experienced consultants to convert your slides, photos, and videotapes to a digital format that you can use
in your classroom.

Already familiar with multimedia but don't have the equipment? Schedule an appointment to work on your project in the FMC.

Who can schedule appointments to use the FMC? Penn State faculty or graduate students who need help with creating digital materials for
courses taught on a Penn State campus can schedule an appointment by
calling 814-863-7051.

  • 9:00 am to 5:00 pm
  • Monday, Wednesday and Thursday
