Outside of scheduled class times, students and advanced student productions can make a request to use the shop with the Production Shop Coordinator. All projects, and how they are executed, must be cleared by the Production Shop Coordinator. The Production Shop Coordinator and/or a qualified student shop employee must be present in order to utilize the shop. Working in the shop without supervision is considered unauthorized access and will result in suspension of facility privileges.


The Cinema and Television Arts Production Shop, at the Media Production Center, is an instructional facility that serves as both a classroom and a fabrication facility for advanced student productions.


WHO CAN USE THE MPC PRODUCTION SHOP

The Production Shop is a place where users will operate potentially hazardous equipment. For safety and liability reasons, facility users must be currently enrolled students at Columbia College Chicago who are taking, or have completed, any of the following classes:

  • Production Design Fabrication (CINE 105),
  • Cinema Set Design and Construction (CINE 208),
  • Cinema Props (CINE 205),
  • Cinema Models and Miniatures (CINE 310),
  • Production Design: Special Effects (CINE 466)


Students must be registered for classes during the current semester (or for the fall semester, in the case of summer) in order to use the Production Shop. Fellow students are welcome to assist with projects being fabricated in the shop, but they will be limited to what they can do or utilize if they have not had the requisite shop class.

After a student has successfully completed one of the aforementioned classes, use of the shop by that student, if not currently enrolled in another shop class, is at the sole discretion of the Production Shop Coordinator. Abuse of shop policies and safety protocol can lead to the suspension of facility privileges.

The Production Shop is for registered class projects only. Use of the shop for projects outside of Columbia College is prohibited.


To repeat, use of the Production Shop for any class project must be cleared by the Production Shop Coordinator.

MATERIALS
Materials within the Production Shop are intended for shop classes only. The Production Shop does keep on hand reasonable amounts of scrap wood and building materials, various adhesives, and various fasteners. Students working on registered advanced student productions are welcome to inquire about utilizing these materials. However, large amounts of any of the above must be provided by the user/production. The Production Shop is not a store and should not be seen as an easy way for productions to acquire their materials. Check with staff to see what is on hand and available to you before making assumptions.



PROJECT STORAGE
Unfortunately, there is not much room for storage in the Production Shop, or the MPC, in general. Project storage is limited to classes that take place in the shop. Items stored must be clearly marked with the student's name. The Production Shop assumes no responsibility for anything you store, but we will do what we can to prevent incidents. At the end of the semester you are responsible for taking your work home. Signs will be put up stating the dates at the end of each semester when we will begin our facility clean out. Anything left on the shelves after these dates will be discarded. Consider this a formal notice in advance.

Advanced Student Productions must get approval from the Production Shop Coordinator in order to store any materials and/or completed projects.
