Issue #214 – Apprentices in Action
by Liya Swift
Congrats to Jose Castrejon on finishing Recording Connection’s Advanced Audio Engineering program! Speaking of his experience training with Ira Parker of Maximus Music Records:
“The guys [at Maximus] constantly push you to be better you than the day before…Watching them engineer and mix is one of the best experiences a student can have…The techniques and tips that [were] told in class I constantly applied due to the fact that I got the chance to record a two-track with a rap artist and…a Corridos band with an accordion, bass guitar, twelve string guitar, and two vocalists…Putting the Sony C800G on it and running through an LA2A and an MC77 was crazy! The sound was just extraordinary…All I want to say for future students is if the opportunities are there and you don’t take them that’s your loss…Learn as much as you can, try to be at the studio as much as you can, help around because gaining your mentor’s trust is one of the best things life can hand you.”
Film Connection student Mike Whitehead who trains with mentor Rocco Michaluk at Rocco Films is glad to be getting some hands-on experience prior to starting production on his own upcoming project:
“Wrapped up production with last day/night of shooting for “A Life Worth Living.” Assisted with usual tasks as well as learned a few quick tips on the fly, including lighting and setting up camera tripod rails and sandbags. [I] also got to fill in as an extra for a brief scene. Thankful for this opportunity to be introduced to the [short] filmmaking process, and get my feet wet in anticipation for my potential short film.”
