FSU / Film School / About The Film School / Facilities
Facilities
FSU is the only university in the nation that owns and makes available to its students Super-16 and 35mm production equipment, including grip and camera trucks.
Students work in dedicated production offices, shoot on professional sound stages, view their work in screening theatres tuned to industry specifications, and edit their work in non-linear digital post-production facilities.
The facility is open and available to students 24 hours a day. The Film School is among the largest and best-equipped facilities in the world devoted to film education.
Post Production Studios
The Film School's post production facilities feature a completely tapeless high-definition environment serviced by a SAN (storage area network) that delivers media through a fiber optic network.
Students have 24-hour access to 15 client based editing suites that employ Final Cut Pro HD, Avid and Nuendo applications in 5.1 configuration on Apple G5 computers.
Visual Effects Lab
The Visual Effects Studio at the Film School provides a "virtual facility" for the production of visual effects for student films.
The lab features five fully outfitted QuadCore G5 workstations, networked with the post facility's optic fiber network and with more than 4.2 terabytes of additional dedicated storage.
Soundstages
The Film School is equipped with two soundstages (A and B) for the production of student films, to hold classes and for production workshops. These acoustically isolated spaces measure approximately 3000 and 1500 square feet, respectively.
Mix Theaters
Included in the post production facilities are two re-recording stages (mix theaters A and B) for the completion of student works.
These fully automated mixing facilities feature WK Audio ID control surfaces on Nuendo editing/mixing systems.
Dailies Screening Theater
The Dailies Screening Theater is an intimate 30 seat facility for viewing of each day's footage during production.
