Academic Media

Using media in teaching and learning can ignite students' interest in visual and imaginative ways. The ADC offers various resources for those interested in creating video or audio elements for their courses. Whether you're looking for complete and collaborative support, or prefer to do it yourself — this is the place to start.

Academic Media Group

IMAGINE. INSPIRE. CREATE.

Our Academic Media Group (AMG) provides support, consultation and expertise in video, audio, and multimedia production for faculty. We provide clients with the experience and expertise to imagine an idea and create educational programming that entertains and inspires audiences.

AMG Services

AMG offers expertise in writing, directing, camera work, sound, animation, and video editing. Collaborating closely with faculty and departments at MRU, we guide you through the entire production process from initial concept to completion.

We use various production tools to help bring your media project to life, such as a 360 VR camera, drones, slow-motion cameras, high-end production cameras, and much more! In addition to video production, we also can provide professional audio recording or photography.

Do It Yourself

Our Media Trainer can answer your questions and provide hands-on training in software such as ClipChamp, iMovie, Adobe Premiere Pro and more. Book a consultation by emailing Bree Smith at bssmith@mtroyal.ca.

Lightboard Studio

The Lightboard Studio, located in the ADC Sandbox (EL2274), allows you to record videos that engage your students by including handwritten notes, diagrams or other overlays while facing your audience. This space is great for creating asynchronous learning materials for in-person and remote teaching. You can also book the space during our regular business hours for fully synchronous online delivery.
