About

The One Button Studio (OBS) is an automated video production space that allows its users to easily create high-quality videos without any prior experience with video production tools. This service has been brought to Southeast Missouri State University by the Heather MacDonald Greene Multimedia Center in Kent Library. The OBS was developed by Pennsylvania State University and was selected as one of the best new library services by the American Library Association (ALA) in 2014.

The OBS is useful in any instance where video can be used to enhance viewer engagement.

Things to Bring
