Expanded shuttle service from DePaul's Loop Camps to Cinespace Studios Chicago began in early June. (DePaul University/John Corba)Earlier this month, the School of Cinematic Arts launched expanded shuttle service to Cinespace Chicago Film Studios from the DePaul Loop Campus. The shuttle now makes hourly departures, Monday-Friday from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., throughout the summer and during the school year. Wrapped in "Here, We Do." messages from the university's new brand advertising campaign, the shuttle holds 43 passengers and will give students, faculty and staff increased accessibility to DePaul's sound stages and classrooms at Cinespace.
"Previously, the shuttle service was dedicated for classes only. Now, students can come and go for production meetings, equipment check-outs, or if they just want to hang out and learn more about their craft," says John Corba, director of DePaul Cinespace Studios. Corba says the shuttle will also help with recruitment and facilitate tours for prospective students and provide more opportunities for faculty, staff and guests from the community to visit the facilities.
