Apprentices in Action

Recording Connection apprentice
Kayli Mills (Grand Rapids, MI) recently got to see just how quickly industry networking can pay off. Kayli got an email from a studio owner she had met while networking at the West Michigan Creative Conference. A quick phone call sealed the deal, and Kaylie says she made good money recording several radio spots and a recorded phone set.
“It’s really great to start working in the industry and being able to apply what I’m learning as I go,” she says. Go get ‘em Kaylie!
David Allison, Recording Connection apprentice in St. Paul, Minnesota, just landed his first client in the studio—an artist by the name of Brooks! He ran the session solo, with his mentor on hand in case questions arose. Speaking of the experience, David says,
“Brooks was only planning on laying down 24 bars for the song, but things were going so well that we got him to do 76 bars. It was fun talking with him through a talk-back mic to his headphones and setting up the different takes that where recorded as clips into Pro Tools and then combined and crossfaded to pull together a finished product.”
Film Connection apprentice
Loan Nguyen recently had the privilege of being part of the Ad-Venture film crew at JugFest 2015 in Tulare, CA. Artists included
Chris Young, Big & Rich, Craig Campbell & others! Other than the generator blowing up a couple times and the 100-degree heat, Loan says it was a great day!
