• Requests must generally serve a broad campus purpose and should not include staged, group or posed photos. Submit requests at least three weeks in advance. Please complete all required fields to the best of your ability. Requests submitted through this form take precedence over informal or verbal requests.

Upon submission, the Office of Campus Communications will review the request during its weekly editorial meeting. To request photography services, complete the communications approval and request form and provide the following:

Photo requests are evaluated individually by the Office of Campus Communications. Final decisions are based on stock image needs, team availability and the nature of the event. The office reserves the right to decline any request. For detailed guidance, review the Photo Services Policy.

Fullerton College’s image use policy allows for interviews and the capture of photographs and video recordings of students and visitors on campus and at college-sponsored events for marketing, news and promotional purposes. These images may be used across various media platforms.

A signed release form may be required for:

The Office of Campus Communications is exploring in-house video production opportunities to promote, market and communicate the priorities and impact of Fullerton College. Projects are considered on a case-by-case basis, depending on scope and team capacity.

We are not currently accepting video requests for event coverage.

The office may recommend a third-party video agency to support videography projects. Please note that the Office of Campus Communications does not engage its video agency for webinars, how-to videos or meeting recordings.

Submit a request if your department or division has funding available for video projects or if the project may be part of a larger campaign.
