Open Signal offers 2 industry-standard HD studios.

Our HD production studios are available by-appointment for those in our programs or through rentals. Interested in learning more? Reach out through this form.

Studio A

Studio A (pictured above) is a 2,000-square-foot space with five dolly-mounted Hitachi Z-HD5000 cameras, which you can quickly and smoothly maneuver into different positions, making shooting a multi-camera television show remarkably simple.

Directors can see what each camera is doing and perform live editing using Studio A's video switcher, which is capable of many effects, including split-screen, picture-in-picture and luminance or chromakeys.

Chroma Green Cyclorama green screen that includes an optional roll-out floor, so you can achieve full body green screen shots from multiple angles.
Lavalier mics, which combined with the award-winning Yamaha 02R96VCM sound mixer make great sound easy to achieve.
ETC SmartFade 2496 dimmer board and an adjustable lighting grid, so you have creative freedom in positioning lights for your show and can make every shot look good.
The titling system Xpression CG, which you can use to add animated graphics to your shows.
Studio Lights, including two each of Ushio's 2x2 and 1x2 Zylight Pro-Panel LED Softlight fixtures on rolling stands, which are hooked into the light board via wireless DMX. These add bright but diffuse light, but because they're LEDs, they won't heat up the studio.
Full Matthews Survival flag/net/silk kit, for those who want to fine-tune their lighting for photographs or film shoots.
WhisperRoom SE2000, a professional-quality sound booth, ideal for recording voiceovers, podcasts, music and more.

Studio B

Want to make a show, but have no crew? Shoot in Studio B! Three robotic mounted Panasonic cameras can be controlled by a single operator in Studio B's control room, so that you can film a show all by yourself.

Pan, tilt and zoom from multiple angles. You can save presets so that previous camera positions can be returned to with the touch of a button.

“I don’t know how our organization could even be in existence today without the support Open Signal has provided over the years. Beyond the video editing skills that I learned there, Open Signal provided me with a platform, a new set of immensely useful skills and a framework of quality standards that inspired me to keep working on building the Jim Pepper Native Arts Council to where we are today.”
