Blackmagic Design today announced that Michigan’s Kalamazoo College is using a host of Blackmagic Design gear, including cameras, switchers, recorders and more, for all its campuswide production needs. This includes a full TV production studio in its library, along with three mobile streaming kits used for athletics, lectures, concerts and more, as well as three performance venues and the campus chapel each outfitted with Blackmagic Design production gear.
Founded in 1833, Kalamazoo College is among the 100 oldest colleges and universities in the U.S. However, it prides itself with being on the forefront of media education and technology, and most productions and events on campus are run by students. “Kalamazoo College sees media production and media literacy as vital tools for educating students for a rapidly evolving future, and most of our media department staff comes from real world broadcast backgrounds,” said Jaakan Page-Wood, media producer/studio instructor, Information Services, Kalamazoo College.
The college’s Upjohn Library Commons features a production studio used for TV production class, class projects, video presentations, marketing and internal video content, and more. It’s outfitted with four Blackmagic Studio Camera 4K Pros, each with Blackmagic Focus Demands and Blackmagic Zoom Demands, that record into four HyperDeck Studio HD Plus broadcast decks. The signals are then fed into an ATEM 2 M/E Production Switcher complete with ATEM 2 M/E Broadcast Panel. Two HyperDeck Studio 4K Pros are also used, one feeding the switcher for selectable video content and the other recording from the switcher.
