At City St George's we have a number of digital pods which provide quiet, sound isolating spaces for creating good-quality video and audio content.
There are two kinds of digital pod at currently available, a number of 4-seater pods and a single larger pod, which may be more suitable for users with accessibility needs.
Each pod comes equipped with a City St George's computer, on which you can access all of your work and applications, as you would on any other managed desktop.

The pods are equipped with microphones, cameras and lights to enable the creation of audiovisual content.
We recommend using the Panopto application on these computers for the recording of this content.

The pods have adjustable lighting and air-conditioning.
These can be controlled via the dials on the column at the rear of the pods. The left dial controls the lighting, the right controls the airflow.

To adjust the PCs to your sitting position, place your hand on the base of the monitor and twist to adjust the horizontal angle.
To tilt the monitor vertically, place your hand carefully behind a top corner of the monitor and apply a small amount of pressure to adjust the screen to your liking.
The wired keyboard and mouse can be moved to suit your sitting position

In the smaller pods, the cameras are located at the top of the monitor.
Press in as shown here to retract the camera. In the larger pod the camera is always in a ready position.

Attached to the ring lights, you will find a small control panel shown here.
You can use this panel to switch the ring light on or off, as well as altering both the intensity and warmth of the light provided.
