Audio Production

Develop your creative expertise in cutting-edge audio techniques with the Audio Production Certificate program at CDIA. Learn about the world of audio, studio operations, current music technologies and music production as they are implemented for music, film and television productions, and interactive media. Focusing on music production, sound design and audio post-production, you'll learn audio theory, gain competency with industry-standard tools, become familiar with professional standards and understand the aesthetic considerations of audio for records, film and television, games and new media.

Our facilities include two recording studios, two edit suites/mix studios, and both Mac- and PC-based student labs. Studio D is a full-scale recording studio with 5.1 surround-sound capabilities, a large live room and three isolation rooms. Designed by world-renowned Walters-Storyk Design Group, the studio is equipped with an Audient 8024 console, racks of analog and digital outboard gear, a 2-inch tape deck and Pro Tools HD. Studio F is another full-size recording studio and is equipped with a Yamaha DM2000, a digital console that provides a valuable contrast to the analog Audient.

Through a combination of hands-on exercises, lectures and team projects, you'll be introduced to real-world applications, theoretical concepts, critical listening skills and issues surrounding the aesthetics of sound, audio and music. Working with filmmaking and animation students at CDIA, you'll experience the truly collaborative nature of working with audio for visual media. After completing the Audio Production Certificate, you will have the knowledge and experience to enter the workforce with a substantial r-sum and demo reel.
