Request System

The Multimedia Services office provides equipment and facilities for basic video projects to all students, faculty, and staff. A valid university issued ID is required.

Equipment Loan Procedure

• Students, faculty, and staff may visit the Media Services office on their respective campus to borrow video cameras and tripods (among other items) for up to two weeks.
  • Bloomsburg - 42 Waller Administration Building
  • Lock Haven - 618 Robinson Learning Center
  • Mansfield - 208 Allen Hall
• All cameras record on internal flash memory and/or SD cards.
• Once you have recorded your content, you can use any computer to upload to MyMediasite as described here.
• If you do not have a personal computer available or do not feel comfortable completing the process on your own, you can use computers in the Multimedia Services office.
• Student and professional employees are available to provide basic tutorials relating to the operation of equipment or facilities and assist in this process if necessary. However, we will NOT do your project for you.

If you have need for these services, please visit our office 2-3 days before you plan to record your content to check out the equipment. This should also be at least 1 week before the project is due. Calling ahead or emailing is not necessary. We do not hold equipment on reserve; all loans are handled on a first come, first served basis.

Options for Conversion, Submission and Review

All cameras record onto flash memory cards. After content is recorded, it must be transferred into a computer via a standard USB cable or card reader.

Once imported to the computer, there are several options for submission to instructors, sharing with group members, integration with power point presentations, and archiving for future use.

For advice on the best method for your project, please contact Asa Kelley (akelley@commonwealthu.edu or 570-389-4234).

The mission of BUSN is to offer a professional live video production experience not just for students who may wish to pursue it as a career, but also to those who wish to view Bloomsburg University Athletic competitions and other special events like graduation. 

Most importantly, BUSN is completely student run with the aid of a few staff members who help with scheduling and training.

WHSK is a student-run radio station that provides a means of student training and experience in radio broadcasting.
