Digital Media Services

The Delphi Center for Teaching and Learning offers a variety of digital media services to faculty members to facilitate face-to-face, blended and online instruction.

Services include:

Video Production and Editing Services

The Delphi Center offers professional, but limited, video production and editing services for faculty. The filming needs are to be done in-house (in the Green Screen Studio of the Digital Media Suite on the first floor of Ekstrom Library) and it must be a project in support of teaching a credit-bearing course offered at UofL. The scope of the project needs to be reasonable, as determined during consultation with the faculty member making the request.

Examples of appropriate prior video projects produced for faculty include:

• An introductory video for an online course
• A lecture with or without PowerPoint slides
• An interview with a subject matter expert
• A mock interview demonstrating effective and non-effective communication techniques

When filming is complete, a Delphi staff member will upload the video to a server, such as Panopto. A link or embed code will be provided to incorporate the video into Blackboard.

For large or non-academic video projects, the Office of Communications and Marketing offers a range of video production services including conceptualization, studio and location shooting, editing and live streaming of events.

Digital Media Suite

Faculty are welcome to use the state-of-the-art computer resources at the Digital Media Suite. Located on the first floor of Ekstrom Library, the DMS was created for students to work on digital assignments that are part of a course they are enrolled in at the time. Faculty can use the resources as a do-it-yourself process. Cameras, microphones, and other equipment are available for checkout. The DMS computer lab provides access to specialized hardware and software for recording and editing a variety of multimedia works. The DMS staff is available to support all users, faculty and students, in the creation and production of academic multimedia projects. Check their website for fall and spring semester hours. Summer availability is by appointment only.

One Button Studio

Located in the Digital Media Suite in Ekstrom Library, One Button Studio is a fully functional video production studio made easy. You can create high-quality videos without needing all of the background knowledge of lighting set-up, camera placement, or sound quality. It’s all set-up for you.

Faculty and students may record presentation voice-overs, introduction videos, interviews, guest speakers, and more. Take advantage of the touch-interactive projector system to create lecture or demonstration videos.
