FPS Equipment Usage Policy
The grip/electric and camera equipment housed in FPS ( Production Services) is intended solely for use in FTV production courses and related projects. Students may not check out equipment to use on personal projects.
Student Script Library
The Film and Television Department has created a Script Library to bring together FTV student writers, directors, and producers who would like to collaborate. If you are interested in either uploading your script or using a fellow students’ script in your production, go to https://scripts.bu.edu/scriptshare. Note you must get permission from the writer to use their work.
