A Day in the Life of Our Students

   Congratulations to Recording Connection student Garrett Luete (Colorado Springs, CO) on winning the June Producer’s Challenge! His prize? 4 plugins from Plugin Boutique in Brighton, UK. Speaking of the win, Garrett says, “I’m looking forward to using the various plugins to further my library of sound options to choose from when I produce new tracks! The past year working with mentor Jarrod Headley over at Clear Sound Studios has been more than I could have imagined. I’m thankful for the awesome opportunities the Recording Connection has to offer.”    Film Connection student Peter Dubois (Las Vegas, NV) who apprentices with cinematographer Darko Nikolich, recently had the opportunity to connect with a couple of notable directors while on-set of a one-hour documentary for NBC Sports: “The first day of shooting was one of the most exciting days of my life. This being my first ever job on a production, I was eager to work and do whatever I could to assist the production in any way shape or form. I got introduced to the director Ondřej Hudeček. He had directed several short films over the years including “Peacock” which had won the short film special jury prize at Sundance in 2016. I also met Brett Rapkin, who was a writer and producer on this project. I learned later that he actually wrote and directed a feature film called “Spaceman” starring Josh Duhamel. It was a great honor to work with both of these men in addition to several others.”
