What The
|
This Really Works!
It's your "in," your "foot in the door" to
the media biz. Recording
Connection does what its name implies: "connects" you to someone in the
business. For a career in audio engineering, college is a waste
of time and money. Yes, you
read it right. In fact, I'll repeat it. College is a waste of time and
money. Blasphemy, right? How could I write something so stupid, so
idiotic, so irresponsible, so untrue! Because I work in the
business, and know of what I write.
Helping Dreams Come True
How Do You Get Your Dream Audio
Engineering Job?
The Recording Connection music, audio and
live event sound programs allow you to go to school and get a job as a
Recording Engineer, Music Producer and other related positions.
The Recording Connection program was designed
to solve the age-old problem of "no experience by giving you hands-on
experience in the real world, learning at a top recording studio where
you live, from a professional audio engineer or music producer.
Real World
Training
Study With A Working Audio or Music Professional
The best teachers -- and best learning environments -- are found in the real world. That's also where you make crucial job
connections. Recording Connection
delivers both. When we schedule a student for an interview with a
potential mentor, there are only two questions they have about a
potential
apprentice. The first one is, let's be sure that the person is not a
kook, a jerk or a crazy. And the second one is, do they really want it.
The secret is that people love to teach what they know and love to
teach somebody who is hungry and eager to learn.
Does College Work?
Want A Job In Media?
Why college may not be the answer.
Today, paradoxically, a
college diploma is considered both essential and nearly meaningless.
Since employers can no longer rely n a college diploma, per se, to have
much value, they rely more and more on specialized graduate-school
programs to train prospective employees.
We Were Skeptical. Now We're Not
Digging For The Real Story
Before our students get accepted into
Recording Connection,
they've already had to clear two hurdles. First, is when we hold our
initial interview with the student. The second hurdle is
with the recording studio mentor. If the studio calls up and
says the student isn't good enough, the student can't get into the
program. So you have to be accepted. Of course, most recording schools
say "we don't accept just anyone." Well, sure they do. Why wouldn't
they?
Recipe For Success
Recording
Connection's Success Built On Age-Old Concept
Sadly, most recent college grads are in
debt up to
their teeth with student loans, making it damned near impossible to
take an entry-level position anywhere because they simply will not be
able to make ends meet. Unfortunately, after earning their degree
they soon learn that all they are qualified for is said entry-level
position.
Hands On Audio Training In The Real World
Real World Training For
The
Audio Engineer
Behind every great CD is a great recording
engineer. Despite the
glamour of a global music act with a multi-platinum album, the
competition to be the engineer on such a project can be nearly as
fierce as being the artist. Those who want to work with the top
recording studios, or any studio for that matter, find themselves in a
Catch-22: You can't work without experience and you can't get
experience without work. Recording Connection solves this
dilemma.
