GCC Media Services provides select audio and video recording services to the campus community.  Requests should be made several weeks prior to any event, and can be generated online via the Campus Event & Resource Scheduling website or through the campus events coordinator, Patty Priester. 

Once a resource request is entered into the electronic system, Media Services will work to provide the appropriate staffing and equipment, as available.  We reserve the right to refuse last-minute requests made less than one week from an event or when insufficient business/academic justification is offered. 

Our trained videographers currently operate Canon XHA1 and XL1 professional cameras, capturing on both Mini-DV tapes and digital hard drives.  All videos are shot in widescreen HD formats.  This media can be imported into our computers and converted to various formats, including DVD and digital video.  Written approval MUST obtained from speakers prior to the commencement of any taping. 

Use of recording equipment and operator services will be provided at a reasonable cost to campus constituents subject only to the availability of the requested item(s).

GCC Media Services offers limited media dubbing and duplication services for College-related business.  Commonly handled requests include creating batch orders of CDs or DVDs, and dubbing VHS tapes to DVD format, subject to all legal and copyright restrictions.  Requestors will be charged basic fees for any blank media and duplication/printing to cover the cost of the supplies and equipment. 

Our basic duplication service entails making exact copies of your master(s). Due to the nature of analog media, we cannot guarantee the quality of any duplication made to and/or from analog audio/video media such as VHS, audio cassette, etc.  Also, copies from one digital format (such as Mini DV) to another will only be as good as the master you provide. If you need advanced editing services or require broadcast quality duplication, we recommend that you outsource your media needs.

We will attempt to duplicate the master(s) you provide. However, due to various speeds and configurations of media, we cannot guarantee that the duplication can be completed. Due to the fragile nature of most media, we cannot be held responsible for any damage done to any master while attempting to perform a duplication.

If you wish to combine segments from multiple masters, there will be additional labor charges.  You must have analog media cued and labeled in the order of each segment you want transferred. You can provide the track or chapter number sequence order for multiple CDs or DVDs you want combined onto another media format.
