Videotaping Requests
The Educational Technology Department will attempt to honor requests from faculty members for student assistance with videotaping certain class activities or campus-wide events, Requests for such assistance must be sent in writing to Frank Paino fpaino@bw.edu with a minimum of 15 days advance notice.
Educational Technology does not have the staffing or technical proficiency to offer professional audio/videotaping or multiple camera and/or audio set-up The department can provide (as schedules allow) a one person, one camera set-up. NOTE: THERE IS A CHARGE OF $25.00 PER HOUR FOR THIS SERVICE. The camera operator will be a student worker, not a member of the full-time staff. The end-product will be consistent with what one would expect from a one camera shoot on a camcorder (i.e. not “professional quality”). We are not able to edit the recorded material. We will be glad to burn the video to DVD and provide copies at a cost of $4.25 each (including printed label and jewel case).
Events requiring professional sound and/or video will need to be contracted with outside vendors and it will be the responsibility of the requesting party to make arrangements with these vendors.
We do not have any recommendations with regard to professional videographers; however, we can recommend the following vendor for sound :
Paladin Professional Sound
