Be aware that hardly anyone gets the pro tools certification (1 person in the last three years), and it's an extra $3,000 to sit the exams.
A studio will however give you real hands on experience, and nothing teaches you like having to do it in front of clients or a boss. Most studios, at least for the entry level positions, don't expect you to be a pro tools ninja, as they expect to have to teach you.
Go for LARS if you have the money spare and really want just an academic experience - it is the best of the bunch, but if you want to really how to compose or engineer, get a job as a composers assistant or engineering assistant. |
Say I want to intern at a mastering house, pro tools cert fine or would I have to say at least get basic knowledge of pro tools? I'm ditching the idea of going to school and just intern somewhere for a few months. I'm not looking to get rich I just want a career.
