Lab and Studio Attendants

Empowering Creativity Through Expert Support

Our Labs Team is here to make sure your ideas don’t just stay ideas — they become tangible, shareable creations. Whether you’re prototyping a new product, experimenting with materials, or producing professional-quality media, our attendants are your go-to guides for making the most of SCD’s specialized facilities. They ensure equipment is used safely, spaces are welcoming and accessible, and projects can move from concept to completion. The team includes two areas of focus: Media Lab Attendants and Shop Lab Attendants.

What We Do

 

Media Lab Attendants

Media Lab Attendants are the experts behind the scenes in our Media Studio — a content creation and production space designed for everything from podcasts to promotional videos. The studio features an 18' by 18' stage under a lighting grid, acoustic treatments, curtains and a green screen, flexible equipment and furniture, video and audio recording tools, and a custom-built control desk that functions as both a recording booth and an editing suite.

In this space, Media Lab Attendants:

  • Guide guests in the safe and effective use of media production tools and resources
  • Offer technical support for recording, editing, and production equipment
  • Perform troubleshooting and preventative maintenance
  • Keep the studio organized, clean, and ready for use
  • Ensure all users understand and follow studio policies
  • Celebrate and share standout projects created in the space

 
 

Shop Lab Attendants

Shop Lab Attendants keep our makerspaces and production shop running smoothly — including the print lab, crafting lab, electronics lab, textiles lab, 3D print lab, laser lab, CNC lab, and joinery lab. These spaces give creators access to everything from precision tools to advanced fabrication equipment, opening the door to a wide range of prototyping and building possibilities.

In these labs, Shop Lab Attendants:

  • Provide training and guidance on safe and effective equipment use
  • Support guests in material selection, setup, and project execution
  • Troubleshoot equipment issues and perform preventative maintenance
  • Maintain a clean, organized, and safe work environment
  • Ensure compliance with lab safety and usage policies
  • Highlight and share unique projects developed in the makerspaces
