Question: What is the technical name for a room where one makes multimedia materials!?
I work at a Japanese university, and my university is constructing a new building on campus!. One of the rooms has been specifically designed for making multimedia materials, like large poster, video editing, and power point production!. In Japanese the name of the room, directly translated, is "The room for making multimedia materials"!. That is way too wordy, so they want to know what a better term would be!. If anyone out there has any suggestions or actually knows what the technical name of a room like that would be called, please answer this question!.

Thank you!.Www@QuestionHome@Com


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
Typically this would be called a 'studio'!. Or possibly a 'production suite'!. The title would often be preceded by the specific purpose of the room; ie 'recording studio' or 'video production suite'!. Printing would be done in a separate area called the 'print shop', if there is enough printing to be done to require a whole dedicated area for it!.

If all of your gear is compact enough to fit it all into one small area, with one name, you might want to call it the 'multimedia studio'!.
