Week One EOC: My Voice

Who am I? To the outside world, just another art student with no “real” options to fall back on in life. In my world, the world I decide to live by, they might call someone like me an aspiring audio guy. A reality that I have relatively come to accept, a career in music and audio is all I can really see myself doing. Obsessed with the unique nuances of every organic sonic matter [noise] known to man, music has and continues to hold my attention in every aspect of my day-to-day routine. Whether it’s sonically dissecting every piece of music that plays on my morning commute to school or the rhythm I catch myself trying to sync with my blinkers on a stoplight, music surrounds and drives me.
You may be asking yourself what I might want to do with a career field as vast and all encompassing as audio lends itself to be. At the moment, my interests—my obsessions, rather, lay in live sound, the performance aspect of music, and traditional studio work. What’s my “dream job?” The dream for an audio cat like me sprouts from a long infatuation with all things Disney. Ever since I was could remember, Disney was, for me, synonymous with groundbreaking stories, visuals, and most importantly, outstanding sounds and music. The Disney Magic, as it’s more familiarly recognized today, lies in the smallest of details within Disney’s inner workings.  These small details are the same details I find myself lost in when I edit video as of recent. I’m a slave to the audio—enslaved to the extreme precision and timing, which must coexist in for audio in video to truly glue together to make something special. Finding the exact frame of impact and the perfect sound to match leaves me as happy as drug addict high off their drug of choice.
All in all, I’m a fan of good music, good sound, good audio.
