Art and Design Lab
A room for interdisciplinary work and teaching, ideal for experimentation in a number of fields. Equipped with a copier machine, light box, guillotines and other hand tools related to graphic arts, it provides our Department with opportunities to practice around paper quality, print quality and how to apply traditional and advanced methods. It is the most popular room to work in after school hours, as the classroom allows students to work independently and at a relaxed pace.
Multimedia Lab
In the Multimedia Lab we teach a number of courses in which students use multimedia technologies. The room is equipped with Desktop computers and low-cost audiovisual tools while portable gadgets e.g. VR devices, smart devices, arduinos etc are taken to the classroom per course needs. Multimedia courses are also supported by the research laboratories of the Department with some of the lessons taking place at the research labs.
Interaction and Technology Lab
In the Interaction and Technology Lab we teach a number of courses, in which students engage in problem based learning and design tutorials. The room has easy access to large surfaces/ whiteboards, foamboards and surfaces, and paper & pencil, blushes, paints, material for prototyping, design and art work. Design courses are also supported by the MGA Makerspace with some of the lessons or tutorials taking place there.
Photography Lab
In the Photography Lab we mainly teach photography and cinematography courses. The room is especially designed for such courses. It’s an open space and an adjustable room for presentations, with lighting for photo shootings, and a dedicated darkroom in a separate space. The Photography Lab is also used for screenings of movies (movie nights organized by students) and special events.
Graphic Design Lab
In the Graphic Design Lab we teach a number of courses, mainly focused in Graphic Design and Typography oriented subjects. The room is surrounded by exhibition panels especially for students’ work presentations, the workspace is equipped with desktop computers both for the tutor and the students. There is a photocopy machine and a printer serving experimentation and production purposes. Also available are related graphic materials for the students to work with such as pens, pencils, brushes, acrylic and gouache paint, various types of paper, scissors glue etc. Design courses are also supported by the MGA Makerspace with some of the workshops, tutorials and crafting taking place there.
Animation Lab
In the Animation Lab we teach animation courses and, in parallel, we provide specialized workshops focusing on digital audiovisual production methods and software. The room is equipped with light-tables for hand-drawn animation while the instructor has easy access to various material necessary for experimentation in animation techniques (such as pens, pencils, plasteline, cartons, paint and others). The room is also equipped with a digital drawing tablet and desktop computers which serve as digital means of production and which are used for the post-production stages of the students’ films. Adjacent to the Lab is the animation studio equipped with an animation rostrum, lighting equipment, cameras and all other necessary equipment for the production of the students’ animated films.
