max95 Posted June 1, 2009 Share Posted June 1, 2009 Hello - Hopefully by now all of you guys have been admitted into NYU I am new to the board and am researching my eventual career change (from finance/accounting to possibly music technology, audio engineering, editing etc.). Being new to this industry, I am not sure the best way to break into this industry (whether it be scouring ny city for a gopher job at a sound or production studio w/o any formal education or actually going to a school like SAE institute, Sonic Arts Ctr. @ city college or even NYU if I could be so lucky to be admitted). I was wondering if any of you guys would be able to lend some advice: First: How useful will a school like SAE institute or NYU or Sonic @ C.College be for advancing a career. It seems that a lot of "music technologists don't have formal education geared toward music production/engineering. I went to one of their open houses (SAE) and it seems like I would learn a bunch altough it is relitively unknown to me and I don't want to be spending $20k for the music version of "Apex Technical School" or "Devry." So what about NYU Steinhardt for Music Tech. Being NYU I'm sure its a strong program with great credintials but on the flip side, what are my chances of getting in given I work in finance and my music education/professional experience essentially stopped in highschool with completion of marching band, piano lessons and a weekly DJ gig. So what are the requirements of getting in other than the obvious like college transcripts, an essay, recommendations etc. Do I need to have experience in the industry, be a musician, be involved on the business side of the industry? I'm looking for the requirements they don't mention on the NYU website. Second: Can I conceivably and practically get a job at a sound studio or production studio as a gopher, personal assistant or some bottom of the totem pole role? Any other suggestions or resources (books, news websites etc.) for ways for me to learn this industry and see where opportunities lie would be greatly appreciated. Best of luck to you all. -Max95 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
