If you are enrolled in a class that utilizes studio space you can reserve Studio A (245B ), Studio B (221B), Studio C (231B) or the Whisper Room inside Studio A (245B). Please fill out the Reserving Studio Space Form at least 24-hours in advance. Please indicate everyone who will be involved in your production and carefully read the instructions for using the studio.  After your request, you will receive an email notifying you of approval or if there is a reservation conflict.  After your shoot, you are required to clean the studio.  Any items left behind could result in adding a custodian fee of $125. Requesting a reservation is not a guarantee of access to the space.

It is strongly recommended to have sit-down session with the Production Unit manager (Angela Looney) to provide written details of your project. This would include:

• A list of properties and other accessories that will be used during the project (e.g. flooring for set, glass dishes and plants).
• Any other equipment that will be used for production, that does not belong in Studio A, B, C, Whisper Room or Equipment Checkout (https://clas.uiowa.edu/produnit/equipment).

Please schedule a sit-down session via email to angela-looney@uiowa.edu.

It shall be understood that reserving the studio is a privilege, and at any given time that privilege shall be revoked if my conduct, or the conduct of any other person involved in my project is not in accordance to the rules laid down for studio use.

Those rules include: no fire, no smoke machine, fog machines, fire crackers, fire arms, or any type device that would set off fire alarms, and if this would happen, I could be held responsible for any or all mishaps that happen during my studio reservations. The cost of a fire alarm going off is $1,400 and that cost could be added to my U-Bill.
