Creating New Ways to Teach Media

What better way is there to tell the story of our new Media Production Center than through the production work of our students?

Television student Brittany Fleming produced this video under the direction of faculty advisors Kristin Pichaske and Mat Rappaport. The segment, created entirely by students, features the work of students enrolled in Advanced Lighting and Camera and Advanced Motion Graphics in spring 2009.

This Is Columbia's Ribbon-Cutting Moment

Columbia College Chicago officially opened its new Media Production Center on Friday, February 5, 2010. Chicago Mayor Richard M. Daley joined Chairman of the Board Allen M. Turner, President Warrick L. Carter, MPC architect Jeanne Gang, and others on the main soundstage for a celebratory ribbon cutting.

We were there with our Flip camera, talking with students, faculty, and others who came out to celebrate the Media Production Center.
