Frequently Asked Questions

What kinds of projects is this room designed for?

Media 1 is best used for live recording a project with multiple camera angles or for adding slides to a seated presentation. Recording live (with or without the teleprompter) can significantly reduce or eliminate editing time.

What if I don't have a specific project in mind, but I want to get trained on Media 1?

Go ahead and submit a request for Media 1 and let us know on the form that you’d like training for a future project.

What if I have a project idea, but I'm not sure how Media 1 can help or if it's capabilities fit my idea?

If you have an idea, but have questions about how to get started, visit the Start Page. If you need more help, email us at learningstudio@acu.edu.

What if I'm in Media 1 and having trouble with the equipment?

For troubleshooting Media 1, visit the Learning Studio desk or email us at learningstudio@acu.edu.

Frequently Asked Questions

Who has access to Creative Cloud?

Students taking at least one ACU course per semester, and all ACU faculty and employees have access to Adobe Creative Cloud.

How long does my access last?

You’ll have access to Creative Cloud as long as you’re a registered ACU student or employee.

After my access expires, what happens? Will my projects be lost?

You will receive a notification from Adobe saying your access has expired. Your projects will still be saved, but to access or log back in to your account, you’ll need an active Creative Cloud membership.

What programs are offered in Adobe Creative Cloud?

See here for a complete list of programs.

How many licenses do I have with my access?

You have two licenses for each Creative Cloud app, so you can install each program on up to two devices.

I don’t have a lot of space on my computer. Do I need to download all of the programs in Creative Cloud?

No, you do not need to download all of the programs in Creative Cloud. Once you download the Creative Cloud Installer and log in with your Adobe ID, you’ll be able to choose which programs you’d like to install from the Creative Cloud dashboard.

I have older versions of Adobe programs on my computer. Will I lose my saved projects if I download Creative Cloud?

No, downloading Creative Cloud will not erase any of your old versions of Adobe programs. Once you log in to your Adobe Creative Cloud account, you will see all versions of the Adobe programs that you have downloaded on that device, with the option to erase or update as needed.
