SAE London invest heavily in new facility
SAE Institute have acquired a new building in the capital – plans already underway for 7-storey super-college…
London, UK: SAE Institute are already the established world leader in
providing degree-standard audio, film and multimedia education, but
2008 is shaping up to see the biggest shake up of the UK operation to
date. The latest development sees SAE London move from it’s current
location at Caledonian Road to a much more modern 7-storey campus –
and in doing so SAE Institute will be expanding the campus to
accommodate more students with even more resources.
A mere stone’s throw from London’s Olympic site for 2012, the much
sought-after standalone location on Kingsland Road allows operations
to be spread across 18,000 square feet of the state-of-the-art facility.
Planners at the SAE Institute are still finalising the details, but
early indications suggest the Kingsland Road site will house 11 audio
studios, a film mixing theatre (featuring the industry-standard Neve
DFC PS/1), 4 video editing studios, ‘green screen’ capabilities
and generally improved facilities throughout.
A new tube station, based near to Kingsland road and part of the East
London Line, is slated to open in 2010, allowing for even easier
access to London’s largest multimedia institute.
SAE Institute founder Tom Misner said: “With this latest development
we’re moving SAE London to Hoxton, the heart of creativity in one of
the world’s most vibrant and important cities. Once again we’re
underlining SAE Institute’s commitment to learning, to technology
and to the industries our students train to be a part of. But most of
all it’s about the commitment to our students. SAE Institute has
consistently raised the bar when setting benchmarks for learning, but
with this new facility we’re taking things to a whole new level.”
