Construction continues at a swift pace for the Howard B. Fitzpatrick Pavilion for the School of Film and Television. Your generosity has made this building possible for our talented community of students and faculty. The new 24,000-square-foot structure will enhance the school’s teaching and infrastructure capacity by adding a leading-edge screening theater, camera teaching stage, motion capture workspace and studios with dedicated spaces for screenwriting, production and incubator workshops – including the Steed Family Media Arts Innovation Wing, The Fletcher Jones Foundation Innovation Lab, Broccoli Theater and Cosgrove Family Garden.
“As a nationally ranked top-10 film program, SFTV is at the forefront of technological progress in media arts,” said LMU President Timothy Law Snyder, Ph.D. “The new SFTV Howard B. Fitzpatrick Pavilion will ensure that our students lead and revolutionize the creative industries and our human future. Through interdisciplinary collaboration, discovery, and invention, the new pavilion will give our students access and training in forward-thinking media technologies, the business of entertainment, and a variety of storytelling platforms to serve humanity. We honor and thank our benefactors for their vision and dedication to advancing LMU as the hub for creativity in Los Angeles.”
