The Norwick Center for Digital Service's Student Multimedia Center is a place where SMU students can create, edit and practice digital projects, such as video editing, PowerPoint, website development, blogs and much more. The Center features 14 individual iMac computers stations with a variety of software, and 4 group project/practice rooms, also equipped with Mac computers. Individual stations are designed to be self-serve and while staff assistance is available, dedicated one-on-one support should be scheduled in advance.

The Center welcomes walk-in students, both individuals and groups. If you require one-on-one support for a digital project, please contact the center, multimedia@smu.edu, in advance so that support accommodations can be made.

The Center also features a multifunction Screening Room located in Room 109B of Fondren Library East, which has a capacity of 40 students and provides access to VHS, DVD (both NTSC & PAL formats) and an iMac computer. To schedule use of this room, send an email to fle109b@smu.edu or visit the NCDS website, smu.edu/cul/ncds/ for more information.
