How do you build a creative studio that empowers public school learners for the 21st century?

A featured project: City of Mandaue for Mandaue City School for the Arts

In today’s digital learning environment, schools need more than traditional classrooms—they need spaces where students can create, perform, and produce using modern tools.

The Mandaue City School for the Arts envisioned a multimedia and recording studio that would strengthen arts education and enhance the teaching-learning process across the division.

To bring this vision to life, the project was awarded to AVLS through public bidding, in accordance with Philippine government procurement law.

A Studio Designed for Modern Teaching & Learning

The goal was to build a space that enables teachers and students to:

  • Produce instructional videos and digital lessons
  • Record music, voice-overs, and creative content
  • Livestream school events and performances
  • Receive real-world training in audio and video production
  • Strengthen digital literacy and creative expression

AVLS delivered a fully integrated solution which is professional in function, yet user-friendly for schools.

How do you empower schools with 21st-century learning tools – right inside your division office?

A Featured Client Story: DepEd Mandaue City Multimedia & Recording Studio

As classrooms evolve and digital learning becomes essential, schools now need more than textbooks and traditional teaching tools. Educators must produce learning modules, training content, livestreamed programs, and digital teaching materials that keep students engaged, whether in the classroom or online.

This growing need inspired the DepEd Division Office of Mandaue City to build its own Multimedia & Recording Studio – a space designed not just for internal communication, but to uplift the entire public school community with modern, accessible, and high-quality educational content.

Building a Studio That Supports Teachers and Learners

DepEd Mandaue envisioned a studio that could strengthen both learning and teaching. They needed a space where the division could:

  • Record and produce video lessons for teachers and students
  • Create training modules and instructional materials
  • Livestream educational programs and division-wide events
  • Improve communication with schools, parents, and stakeholders
  • Empower teachers to deliver more engaging and updated content

To bring this vision to life, they awarded the project to AVLS through public bidding as required by Philippine government procurement law, tapping into our expertise in studio integration, educational technology, and AV-IT solutions.

The result is a 4.5m × 7m multimedia arts studio, fully designed and integrated to support learning in today’s digital era.

A Studio Designed for Education

Every part of the space was designed for learning continuity, teacher capability-building, and clear, high-quality communication across the division with the following features:

This project was not just an installation. It was a turnkey educational studio, designed, built, integrated, tested, and commissioned by AVLS to be ready for teaching and content creation from day one.
