Last month I wrote an article called Why Audio Engineers Need to Know Video.
I talked about how video is a great opportunity for audio engineers and can lead to new jobs.
A few of you commented on the post, saying that you thought we audio engineers should just focus on audio rather than expanding into the world of video.
This is a valid point, so I want to discuss the alternative — why audio engineers DON’T need to know video.
I’ve had the unique experience of dealing with quite a bit of video lately. I’ve always done short little videos here on Home Studio Corner, but those were rudimentary at best.
Now I’m creating weekly content for the HSC Production Club members, and I’ve become heavily immersed in creating videos. In addition, I’ve had the opportunity in the last few months to record several live bands, capturing both multi-track audio and multi-camera video footage – all while still putting on a live concert.
I have a new respect for video guys. There is so much involved with video that goes way over my head, but I’m grasping it more and more, and I plan to continue to grow my video expertise.
Why?
It’s been six months since I started Home Studio Corner, and it’s about time I showed you MY home studio! I love seeing other people’s setups, and I bet you do too, so enjoy!
