Suwon Media Center Recruits Participants for 'Studio Experience Program' Open to All Citizens

[Suwon Ilbo=Lee Min-jung Reporter] The Suwon Media Center under the Suwon Cultural Foundation (CEO Kwak Do-yong) announced on the 21st that it will begin full-scale operation of the 'Studio Experience Program' starting in April to expand media access for Suwon citizens and enhance the utilization of the center as a professional media facility.

The program is a participatory program that allows citizens to directly experience the content production process using professional facilities and equipment such as video, audio, and radio studios operated by the media center. To ensure broader operation, not only general citizens and organizations but also disadvantaged media groups such as children and migrants can participate.

Applicants participate in experience programs tailored to the professional studio facilities of the Suwon Media Center. In the video studio, participants experience activities using chroma key technology and news production. In the audio studio, participants dub animations and films and experience being a voice actor. Additionally, in the radio studio, participants create radio content as DJs and engineers.

The program runs twice weekly on Wednesdays and Saturdays from April through October. Participation is free, and up to 20 people can participate per session. Individuals can apply through the media center's website. Organizations and groups can submit an application form attached to the application page separately, and participation is available after coordinating schedules. For more details, please visit the Suwon Cultural Foundation or Suwon Media Center website.

An official from the Suwon Cultural Foundation stated, "The key aspect of this 'Studio Experience Program' is to open professional equipment and facilities to citizens and create an environment where media can be more easily accessed," and added, "We hope that through this experience, citizens will deepen their understanding of the content production process and have an opportunity to use media more familiarly."
