Issue #130 – Apprentices in Action
by L. Swift and Jeff McQ
Recording Connection student Bailey Dank got proactive recently, bringing local band The Solid Ocean into Imprint Studios (Thornton, CO) to record. It turned out to be a very worthwhile learning experience for Bailey, who’s still in the process of cleaning up the tracks. “I set up the mics for the instruments and dealt with the communication and booking the session. I have also edited the drums and bass and am getting ready to edit vocals. It’s been a great experience and a lot of work but fun. What I took away from the experience is how important it is to get a good recording the first time and to make sure there is no bleeding. It’s really hard to fix the bleeding [afterwards] and make it sound right.”
Film Connection mentor Sean McCarthy (San Jose, CA) recently wrote in to report that his apprentices played integral roles as part of the brain-trust behind his studio’s new ambitious launch of their digital filmmaking brand, Digital Wanderers. Students were on set during the shooting of many of the segments and, Sean says, they also played key roles in “helping market the reel, as well as reviewing various drafts (as we shaped it). Everything from the edit, the web design, the logo and the shots in the piece involved various Film Connection students… We aim to teach a rounded education. Understanding VFX + Animation today is important to any filmmaker so we try to provide a diverse training so they have a better skillset.” We couldn’t agree more!
