Visual Resources Center (VRC)

The Visual Resources Center (VRC) is a student and faculty services center that provides access to a variety of photographic and audiovisual equipment, portfolio photography rooms with professional lighting equipment, and digital image collections.

VRC staff members are available to assist faculty members and students with image-making for academic purposes. Photography and video seminars, as well as basic training on how to take high-quality digital images for academic purposes, are offered by appointment. VRC staff also provide professional input on digital imaging issues surrounding copyrights, file type choices, Adobe Photoshop and Lightroom image corrections, Adobe Premiere and After Effects video editing, and long-term digital file storage.
