Media equipment and editing
A range of media equipment is available for loan, including digital cameras, digital camcorders, digital projectors, dictaphones and CD players.
This media equipment is available to borrow from the i-zone at your campus library. Equipment should be booked in advance where possible.
If you are studying Media at Brampton Road, you have access to the AV Media Resource Area. This resource is exclusively available to media and art and design students and is staffed by a dedicated team of technicians. Please note - all equipment loans require your Cumbria Card.
If you need help using this equipment or help with editing multimedia projects or presentations, you can contact the Service Desk to book a session with one of our technicians.
