Just an update on my progress for everyone! First off I had nothing to do with the final mix of this video so lets all just calm down about that and stop being trolls. Second - I still work in the studio with one band on their music and I don't work in live sound anymore. I moved full time into post production and freelance a ton in production sound mixing, post production for film and TV and podcasting. Before taxes this past year I made $90,000 - so if you work hard, network your butt off and love what you do you can be very successful in a short amount of time! Thanks for watching!
@@trevor4835 @kellykaudio on instagram!
Kelly, I loved your video. Don't listen to all the trolls. Of course you didn't mix this Khan Academy video. You are driven and talented, and it was generous of you to agree to share your experience and advice in this video.
Kelly, thank you for doing this interview it really helped me to solidify my decision to pursue engineering here in Boston you are a blessing!
This is really inspiring! Thanks for sharing Kelly!
Thanks for the update! Hope you're still doing well 🙏
This is a very accurate perspective on the industry, its very hard to get into and it often takes a large amount of experience and aggressive marketing to maintain a consistent income as a lot of the work is seasonal
learning about this during quarantine, anyone else?
Here !! 🤚🏻
I'm in college for sound & recording arts! Finishing up my first semester! 😁😁👋
Indeed
She's Inspiring 💛🌠🏆
My. HERO. thank you so so so so so much for this.
I love how more and more women are taking interest in music production. Y'all bring a fresh view into a mostly male dominated career field.
Really Inspiring
i like how the video about the sound engineer got awful sound
Right?
Left?@@CKdaGiftedOne206
@@thigdig Lol, yeah its dominant towards the left
Actually the correct term is out of phase lol
They used one of those phasing microphones, notice once they switch the camera's how it changes phase.
Thanks for this
Thanks,a lot of information,if you don't know you never know,untill you decide to know.much love from East Africa Tanzania🇹🇿
Excellent feedback. Thank you for sharing your story. As someone who is interested in audio engineering, I listened to every word that you said and will take your advice.
Are math and physics needed or is it one of those things that helps you stand out but isn't neccesary?
Aww that seems like the coolest job ever
This is very inspiring. I’m going to try my hand into audio engineering for post-production and maybe folley design. So, this gives me a better idea on what to expect to get into the industry.
where is that school?
the networking sounds exhausting. Is there any way to be an audio engineer without freelancing?
Build your own in home studio
which college did u go for post grade?
University of Colorado Denver
Who is this girl I love her spirit and would love to form a paid connection between my artist and her and grow together. i hope someone from her camp replies to me and gets in contact with me ASAP!
@Jr Medina Late but her instagram is @kellykaudio
That's great, how will u help me?
who else here from e-learning...ok just me
Do you need to be able to play an instrument to go into music/audio engineering because I want to go into it, but if I need to play an instrument... There’s no way I’d go for it! 😭🤦🏽♀️
I’m also wondering! Someone please reply to her!
Guest1 Guest1 hey I asked at a college and they said that you’re not required to play an instrument but that I should know a little bit about the software that they use
Amy Salah ohhh thank you! Btw are you in college already or high school?
Guest1 Guest1 lol you must be from America 😂😂😂 Ik you guys call uni college... But, I’m 17
No you don’t need to play any musical instrument. But if you learn one it’s going to give a edge over others.
uhhh, um, uhhmm
uh, what, like, um.
Hey, As a Audio Engineer are you aware of your own audio, it is clipping and some aliasing is also happening in 5-7 khz region.
Hey dude. I'm really skeptical in going into this field because I hear the pay is low. I wanna be able to have enough money to pay all my bills/rent and have enough to save and play with. Will you be able to live comfortably?
@@jeremydiaz5172 Hey man, I am an engineer for years now. I have to say, I'm not American, I don't even make 12k (dollars, i can't really live comfortably I'm doing other things in the mean time) a year, though i can tell you this industry is EXTREMELY exhausting. You'll hear anything from "freelance, it's better" to "work for a studio or live sound company". Freelancing you can make more money, but you work your ass off. Then again if you work you way up to the point you can start your own live sound company, you can go to the 80k range in the states from what I've heard.
Jeremy Diaz I personally know quite a few Engineers that make a good living,these guys are 22-25 with a house of there own and living comfortably,but they also weren’t lazy ,you must make yourself as valuable as possible and try to learn literally everything about audio and put yourself out there
@@jeremydiaz5172 2 years later i'm making $90,000 annually so yes you can if you work hard enough!
As an audio engineer are you aware that i'm obviously not the one recording myself on camera or mixing it in post since i'm being interviewed?
Polarity problem with this video.
think about it; when a manager finds out there is a girl or girls available for audio engineering, what can be more beneficial for life..🤖
Her voice sounds 'shaky'
anxious/nervous
Love the info!
Can’t stand the “umm”s… I’m sorry, it’s a major pet peeve.
It’s like listening to my Prime Minister give a speech (Trudeau).
