Photo Shooting Studios

We are open by appointment only.

Please note that orientations will not be offered in the Fall 2020 Semester. Students who were oriented in the past will retain access (see eligibility and requirements).

Due to social distancing requirements, there will be limited orientations for Spring 2021. Information about orientation availability will be communicated shortly.

Make a Tech Consultation.

1. Fill out the brief campus access survey. This will help you select your building, and ensure you are tested.
2. Make a Technician Consultation.
3. Request a seat at least 48 hours in advance of coming to campus. After scheduling a technician consultation (or sometimes even during one), request a seat via getspace.newschool.edu in the relevant area.

Thank you for your patience and understanding! Please email us at erc@newschool.edu if you have any questions.

Shooting studios are located on the third and fourth floors of the Sheila C. Johnson Design Center (2 West 13th Street and 66 Fifth Avenue) and range from 500 square feet to 800 square feet in size. All studios are equipped with ProFoto strobes and base grip equipment including c-stands, grip arms, crossbars, umbrellas, and gray, white, and black seamless (9′ and 5′). Two of the five studios also include Broncolor Grafit as well as hot light kits.

Pop-up studio kits are available for check-out to students through the ERC. The pop-up studio kit includes a background stand and the choice of a white or black backdrop. Students can also reserve a variety of continuous lights and full-frame DSLRs.
