Cultural Industries facilities and equipment

Control podcasts 

Radio control equipped with computer, video monitors, AEQ Forum digital soundboard, microphone, CD, multi-effects processor, powerplay, amplifier, audio monitors, headphones and clock synchronized with set. 

This space is connected to the recording booth, equipped with microphones, microphone stands and headphones. There is also a visual communication system through PTZ cameras and direct "talkback" between control and the cabin via headphones and microphones. 

Radio Control/Study 

Specific technical space for audio recording, specifically the radio programs and podcasts of the different subjects of the degree, as well as other recordings such as dubbing or "foley" (room effects).  

The radio control is equipped with computers for radio control and audio recording, video monitors, AEQ Capitol soundboard, technician microphone, FM transmitter, microphone amplifiers and set clock. 

The radio studio is equipped with 5 Sennheiser MD 421-II dynamic microphones, microphone stands, headphones with volume control, "on-air" light, speakers and monitor to be able to view images sent from control. 

TV set

Set of infrastructure equipped with a multi-purpose room of around 100 m2, equipped for teaching and specially designed for coexistence between an installation adapted for TV production, as well as a functional set for projects or subjects of fiction, lighting and photography. 

Equipped with program TV and video wall, background curtains/visible brick walls. This space has panels for the construction of sets, including smooth panels, with a door and with a window, black curtains to separate the space in two and televisions with black backgrounds, gray and chroma, furniture such as sofas and tables, cameras with tripod for television with tally, monitors, wireless lapel microphones, portable intercoms, table for light control, motorized grills with spotlights and cold light screens. There are also "Magnum" smoke and fog machines. 

TV control

Attached to the set we find the television control room of about 40m. This room is equipped with a complete TriCaster 460 production control system, with the functions of video mixer, video effects generator, virtual set creation and program for the creation of graphics and animations, three CCUs (Control Units Cameras) for image control of the three cameras located on set, intercom system for the cameras and councilor with performance control.  

It also has a table of lights, synchronized clocks between control and set. It also has a small room specially prepared for sound treatment during the programs, with: TriCaster system audio controller, monitors, headphones, Yamaha digital sound table, connection patch and sound control computer. This space is prepared for the introduction to the production of live content with a professional environment adapted to the needs of teaching. 

Two post-production rooms 

Although some rooms have special features, in general they all have a high-performance computer with specialized post-production software, peripherals such as Steinberg UR22 audio interface, audio monitors, screens, speakers and sound board. 

Color post-production room 

Isolated and quiet room prepared to carry out post-production and mastering of projects or audiovisual pieces that require slightly more powerful equipment. 

This room has a cart specially prepared with a Mac Studio, Apple Studio Display monitor, and specific peripherals to help with video post-production with Davinci Resolve such as the Blackmagic Speed ​​Editor and Mini Panel controllers. 

For the monitoring of the result, there is a television of more than 50” connected through a Blackmagic Ultrastudio 4k video controller. 

All this equipment is designed to be a mobile infrastructure, where in specific cases it can be taken to a classroom and thus carry out practical sessions with a large group, but with technical equipment specific to any assigned classroom. 

Motion Capture Room (MOCAP) 

The MOCAP, or motion capture system, is based on a set of strategically placed infrared cameras that collect information from markers spread throughout an actor's body. These markers reflect the infrared light coming from the cameras, so that the cameras obtain the position, speed, acceleration and other parameters of each of the markers. The precision obtained is very high, with errors less than a millimeter, thus obtaining very smooth movements with great accuracy.
