My advice... find a program with an internship. Then get placed at a post sound facility like Deluxe (with the Sound Dogs) or DAVE or Access Post Audio or Tattersall sound. If you get hired on, you'll be making union money - at least $1200 a week for sound editing for TV or Film. Work experience will take you farther than your education. My friend George was a teacher at Trebas on the weekends and worked at Deluxe. Trebas will take your money and send you on your way. Get a program with the internship. That's the key. I work in the industry, so if there's any other advice or a recommendation I can give, let me know! I once gave an intern here a recommendation for Tattersall sound, and he's a working editor now (making about $1800 a week on Films - check the DGC guide for union rates). All of the editors I know have their own protools systems and make music at home in their home studios. You can charge thru the nose for equipment rentals, too.

- Blackness at WEMF 2007

the school has great gear for learning to use ProTools.. which is rather important. They have some very good credited teachers, but the school remains quite dis-organized. It's true there's alot that can be learned from a book, but how would you know WHAT to learn for your field of work?... there's lotsa choices for schools.

I chose trebas mostly b/c of the price over other schools which would need me to move out for the program... and because of the studios I got to learn in.
