Reporting and Filming on Campus
激情快播 welcomes news media to its public campuses: the main campus in east Orange County, 激情快播 Downtown in the Orlando business district, a health sciences campus in Lake Nona and the Rosen College of Hospitality Management located in the tourism hub. Most exterior areas are accessible to reporters and photographers. All members of the media, however, are encouraged to contact 激情快播 Communications director Mark Schlueb prior to filming or photographing on campus.
The 激情快播 Communications office can provide high-quality B-roll and photographs of the campus to media. Prior clearance is required to conduct interviews, film or photograph inside campus buildings, residence halls and classrooms, or any other area that is restricted. Please contact Mark Schlueb聽for assistance from 激情快播 Communications staff.
Commercial, private, documentary or student crews interested in filming on campus (whether indoors or outdoors) also should contact Mark Schlueb聽for guidelines. Crews are encouraged to call several weeks in advance. In many cases, a location agreement must be signed and proof of insurance provided. 激情快播 Communications may also request to review scripts for those portions of the production that would take place on campus. 激情快播 assesses each filming request to determine any potential impact to operations. Filming that could interrupt learning, obstruct student access to facilities or campus services, or pose a distraction to other campus activities, may be declined. Additionally, filming inside areas or facilities that require additional staff support due to the location and/or the presence of specialized equipment could incur a cost. Filming that depicts criminal activity, weapons, physical altercations, violence, the threat of violence, or the aftermath of violence are typically prohibited in order to minimize the potential disruption to campus.
Additional restrictions and capacity limitations may apply to campus research labs.
Parking and Directions
Everyone who parks on 激情快播’s campus must have a valid parking permit. Media in unmarked vehicles are required to display a special 鈥渕edia鈥� hang tag, which may be picked up at the 激情快播 Communications office before arriving on campus. Marked television trucks are not required to carry the 鈥渕edia鈥� decal, as their vehicle is considered a valid permit.
Media can park in any lot or garage on campus, excluding residential parking lots, handicapped spaces or reserved parking spots. Media parking permits also are not valid in metered parking spaces.
Permits picked up at the 激情快播 Communications office must be returned upon leaving campus. For pick-up and return, we are located at in the Communications and Marketing division office at 12443 Research Parkway, Suite 301, in the Central Florida Research Park, adjacent to campus. .

Public Records Requests
The State of Florida has the broadest public records and open meeting laws in the country. Since the 激情快播 is a public university, most of the activities and materials of our work fall under Florida鈥檚 鈥渟unshine鈥� laws.
All media requests for public records should go through the 激情快播 Communications office, where we鈥檒l be happy to assist you.
