TED Talk: Doing What You Love

In this post I will be talking about a very important topic, doing what you love. My post revolves around a TED talk. For those of you who have never heard of TED, TED is a nonprofit organization that brings together three worlds: Technology, Entertainment and Design devoted to ideas worth spreading. I will delve into why doing what you love is so important not only in the entertainment industry, but in every single industry.  

Different Categories of Engineers

In my two previous posts I talked about what software I like to use and the different categories of microphones. Today I will be talking about the different categories of music engineers. This is a concept that can confuse people because at times an engineer will crossover from his/her category into another, but generally speaking, each task is supposed to be handled by separate individuals. There are three basic categories of engineers: Recording, Mixing and Mastering Engineers. The engineer is responsible for recording and/or mixing the project as well as fixing any technical issues that may arise. Before I go into detail about the job of each of these engineers, just remember that you do not need three of these engineers to produce a song, sometimes all you need is just one. It really comes down to how well that engineer can do their job and handle the tasks at hand.
