The Multimedia Lab no longer requires a proficiency. Any student can use the lab for academic purposes. The Non-Linear editing suites still require a proficiency which can be scheduled with the MML intern.
There is now a third Non-Linear editing suite next to the other two. We have updated to Adobe After Effects CS 5.5, Design Premium 5.5, iLife 11 and we are staying with Final Cut 7 as our main video editing application this year.
Each Station now has a small audio mixer and we bought some Korg NanoKONTROL2, NanoPAD2 and NANOKEY2 MIDI controllers. Each Non-Linear suite will have a NANOKEY2 and the other controllers will be available for use in the lab. We also now have 3 firewire Blu-Ray burners for use in the lab.
