Terrific Tweaks to Dennis McCarthy’s Advanced Sound Design Workshop

We have made some terrific tweaks to Dennis McCarthy’s Advanced Sound Design Workshop. His engineer and sometimes producer, the brilliant Matt LaPoint (see his bio below), will help Dennis teach hands-on, advanced sound design, recording, and post-production sound techniques in our newly-finished and -equipped recording/post-production studio across from the LAT theatre.

By encompassing this new content, the class is essential for all filmmakers. (As George Lucas famously put it, “sound is half of your movie.") It will no longer be necessary to have a film to score, although those of you shooting projects this term, or finishing up in post on previous work will definitely want to take this class.

There are a few spaces left, so if interested, let us know as soon as possible.

Matt LaPoint is a recording engineer, software representative, and audio consultant in Los Angeles. As an engineer, Matt has recorded and mixed dozens of CD releases, national TV commercials, film scores, video games, movie trailers, and prime time television shows. He has worked on projects for CBS, ABC, IBM, Mattel, Morgan Stanley, Pandemic Studios, Sprint, Megatrax, Suave, and others. Matt is the West Coast representative for MOTU, an award-winning music software and hardware developer. Matt also owns a licensed audio consulting business in Santa Monica, California with over 200 clients ranging from A-list film composers to touring musicians and universities.
