Sound Student Technician Course

The Sound Student Technician Course - formerly
Sound TA Course - is taught in conjunction with
the Production Student Technician Course and Post
Production Student Technician Course. An objective
of these courses is to expand the knowledge-base
of the student body in the more technical aspects
of filmmaking. Another objective of this group of
courses is to give students the opportunity to
assist others as a Student Technician. By
assisting others, students will gain a hands-on
understanding of contemporary Production, Post
Production, and Sound paradigms and procedures.
While successful completion of these courses does
qualify you to work as a Student Technician in the
respective area of the course, it does not
guarantee employment.

This course provides an intensive introduction to
the theory and practice of the modern post
production sound facility. Course covers
principles of the sound facility and its
components and systems used for transfers,
digitizing, recording, timecode/synchronization,
sound effects, and mixing. There is also an
emphasis on finishing and media authoring.
