Becoming an Audio Freelancer: An Interview with Andrew Dearing

  Recently, I had the pleasure of sitting down with 10+ year Sound Designer and all around audio veteran Andrew Dearing to chat about a topic in which I will admit I know very little about: the world of freelance.

Monthly Theme: Synthesis

February 1, 2018 by Ashley Coull

Monthly Theme: Synthesis

Sunday Sound Thought #100: The Benefits of Unique Perspectives

I’ve been reading a book in my spare time called How to Win Friends & Influence People, by Dale Carnegie, and have been shocked by how applicable the book’s lessons are to everyday life.

Sunday Sound Thought #98: The Reset Button

Have you ever hit the reset button on your life? The kind where everything you know changes: your job, your home, your community. I think these major resets are happening more than we give them credit for, and yet somehow they always seems to catch us off guard. Resets can happen at any time. Your partner gets an amazing job opportunity that takes you out of state. Or … [Read more...]
