Media Creation Studio

The brand-new Media Creation Studio provides state-of-the-art equipment and training to all students and faculty at Saint Michael’s College.

Through the Media Creation Studio students from all majors will be able to explore the rapidly growing world of media production—expanding their skills and future marketability. The Studio will provide students and faculty the opportunity to interface with media production professionals, learn how to use 4K video cameras, professional microphones, lights, and editing techniques. It will also provide a safe space for students to workshop ideas, get help on projects, and take their production skills to the next level.

Students who learn how to produce media are able to apply for positions in marketing agencies, communications departments, news outlets, and film production houses. As students gain the experience they can use their skills to create their own YouTube channel, film, or podcast, collaborate on multimedia projects, and create a portfolio of work that will aid in applying for positions that require media.

The studio is located in Saint Edmund’s Hall, Room 215.

Meet the Director

Patrick Bohan
Director of Media Creation

In 2007, Bohan graduated with a rare double concentration in both film and video production from a strong, practical-experience-oriented Fitchburg State (MA) program. Since then, successively, he has worked in TV news in Springfield, MA, and Providence, RI, doing camera, audio, lighting, editing and other studio work, and as a producer of corporate videos. He was a technician installing broadcast production studios across New England similar to Saint’s Michael’s Media Creation Studio.

Following his earlier studio installation job, Bohan was a freelance video producer for schools and businesses and, most recently since 2017, a video producer at Wesleyan University in Connecticut. A lifelong storyteller from a family of film buffs and campfire yarn-spinners, Bohan has enthusiasms that run both wide and deep, particularly when it comes to the latest technologies in his field. He is a living example of experience being the best teacher and says he wants to bring similar exciting practical opportunities to Saint Michael’s students.
