Mission Statement

Duke Studios' ongoing mission is to provide quality service at a competitive price while delivering a complete range of broadcast quality media production services to all parts of the Duke University community. The Studios remains committed to the delivery of these services at or below competitive market rates.

Formed in 1980, Duke Studios is an active media production/studio facility located in the heart of Duke University in the Bryan University Center. The Studios is an integral part of the Event Management Department, currently a division of Campus Services on campus. Originally established as an audio production facility and located on Duke's East Campus in the Biddle Building, the Studios and staff moved to their current location on West Campus in 1989. The Studios has continued to expand their integrated range of services, from concept to completion, including: video and audio production and post-production (including event documentation), project design, production equipment rentals, tape duplication, custom CDs and DVDs, and computer graphics and animation.

As corporate members of the Media Communications Association-International (formerly the International Television Association) since 1990, several members of the staff have been recognized with the ITVA Silver Reel of Merit for the quality of their work. The staff is also active within the Duke University production community, providing technical consultation and academic support for the Duke Program in Film/Video/Digital, as well as the student production activities of Cable 13 and Freewater Films.
