Multimedia Resources
Find out what expertise and resources are already available oncampus, so you don’t have to reinvent the wheel (or the internet). Some projects are best done by identifying a group within Duke, or a local freelancer, who has the skills and equipment to complete it. Other projects can be done with a combination of consultation and existing tools and services. Longer-term projects may require training. Listed below, are resources for:
