Here’s what happens when you register for Secrets for Great Film Sound:

You can choose between two session times for the live Q&A and participant screenings, Mondays 6-7pm PST or Tuesdays 9-10am PST.  After clicking on the link above, filling in the registration form on Instant Presenter, and making the payment on PayPal, you’ll receive a link to the live webinar meeting room. Please go there about 10 minutes before the first meeting time to check your settings for audio and video, and give a hello in the text chat to the leaders to let us know you’re online.

For both live session registrations, you’ll receive an email with links to the six recorded modules of training materials, which you can watch at any time. We suggest you take notes of any questions you have and bring those to the live Q&A sessions, especially if you have specific application to your own projects.

The  interactive Q&A sessions with David and Ric will be live and spontaneous, but if you send in questions ahead of time to  sounddesignforpros@gmail.com, we’ll answer those first with any prep that might be useful.

If you have a piece of your work that you’d like reviewed (up to 3 min.) during the live sessions, please send your link to Youtube or Vimeo, to sounddesignforpros@gmail.com, at least 24 hours before the meeting is scheduled.  The first three submissions for each session are guaranteed to be screened, and if there is time after that we will screen more. Take advantage of this interactive coaching, as it is super valuable for all.

If you have already taken a previous Secrets for Great Film Sound complete webinar series and would like to get more coaching, you can register with 50% discount (for $125) by emailing to sounddesignforpros@gmail.com and request a “repeat discount code.”

This is what people say about the David and Ric’s classes:

“David’s workshops rock! His mastery of the material is clear from the first lesson. What really sets David’s workshops apart, though, is his gift for teaching, and personal interest in student’s work. He invited me to share a commercial film I was making with the class, and as a result I gained insights that helped me win quick approval of the project from my client.”

Dan McComb, filmmaker, Seattle, WA

“Ric isn’t your typical technical speaker. He’s energetic, funny, and thoughtful. He thinks outside the box and draws on his unique experiences to articulately teach really serious subjects, while never ceasing to entertain.”

Colin Hart, assistant teacher Full Sail University
