Sound And Scoring Stages

Serving as an informal meeting place for students, the surrounding courtyard of the adjacent Johnny Carson Television Stage and Harold Lloyd Stage is also an occasional site for student shoots and outdoor classes.

Beneath the Carson stage is a portion of the classrooms and lab space for the Interactive Media Division. The offices of Admissions, Student Affairs, Student/Industry Relations and Festivals and Distribution can also be found here.
