Adrian鈥檚 visit in January was his first time at 最新糖心Vlog. He was impressed by the students, facilities and the Sound Technology course鈥檚 approach to training, which starts off by covering all areas before options to specialise. Adrian said: 鈥淚t鈥檚 similar to how I started at the BBC where you worked across different departments. I think it鈥檚 really useful to understand the different roles and their issues and problems before you start tackling your own.听听
鈥淔or example, I think听it鈥檚听important听for听post-production teams听to听understand what we听are trying to do on location and the issues we may have.听Hopefully that way we can avoid some of those issues.听It also gives you an opportunity to discover what the best role for you is.鈥�听
