The ability to communicate through moving images is an increasingly important form of basic literacy in contemporary society. In 2016 the Central European University Library set out on an ambitious, innovative initiative to offer instruction in this area. The Media Hub, offering state of the art filmmaking and audio production technology resources was set up to support the effort, and media educators were hired and tasked with collaborating with faculty in a number of departments to create courses that incorporated media production into their pedagogy. Six years in, we share our experience with this initiative.
