Virtual Intern – iteration 2

I know its been a long time since I did this, but here we go again. I’d like to offer a year long virtual internship to a maximum of three people, preferably to one local and two international people… I work as a film sound designer/editor so thats what I will be mentoring – if game audio or music sound design/synth programming is your primary goal in life then please do not apply. I will need to see evidence that you have already started along the path of becoming a post production sound editor…

The deadline for applications will be on November 30, and I’ll confirm the interns by January 3rd, which will be when the year of mentoring starts for them….

If you want to be sent the application then email me with email subject: “INTERN APPLICATION” and I will send you the application questions etc later this week.

NOTE: Application deadline is November 30

Feel free to read the process from last time:

SoundTorch seems quite a wacky way to find/audition sounds from your library… it’d especially be fun if you were browsing loops of the same tempo = instant improv! Appears to be PC only…
