Apprentices in Action
 

A Day in the Life of Our Students

   Film Connection student Jessica Wise (Lexington, KY) got to learn firsthand that you never know what might happen on a film set! “I got to be an extra in the commercial! Shooting took place in a popular bar in downtown Lexington…This was my first time seeing a professional make-up artist and costume designer on a set. They took great care making the actors and extras look presentable on screen and were always on stand-by in case anyone ever needed a touch up. I hadn’t planned on being an extra when I showed up that day – it was sprung upon me!…I even appeared on local TV! A local news station came by to film a piece on the shoot and I made it in their segment! Check me out – I’m the girl in the middle in the tan shirt, back to the camera with long dark hair.”    Recording Connection student Alejandro Espinoza (Chicago, IL ) is improving his skills quickly, thanks to the expert guidance he’s getting. “It’s been over 3 months with The Recording Connection and I can honestly say it is exactly how I pictured it. Working one on one with Mike Petro from Chicago’s very own Miller Street Studios has been a very exciting and very educational part of the program. Learning from a professional has given me the correct insight to target the hardest parts of the Production part of the program and I feel very satisfied as well as confident with the changes I’ve made with my own projects as well as those worked on with Mike. Always excited for the next session.”
