I just found a place to host the entire masterclass, and it's available for purchase here: www.videomantis.com/courses/boom-right-masterclass-with-ken-strain/
They will coming, I'm on a very time consuming feature right now, when it's over I'll start uploading more short videos. In the meantime, the entire class is now available for purchase at www.videomantis.com/courses/boom-right-masterclass-with-ken-strain/
Are you going to post the next section that talks about the equipment? We are all waiting for the second part its been almost a year we would all love to see the rest of the class.
Is there like a spine or just muscle doctor boom ops see in LA or NYC... I injured myself in NYC and found a spine doctor who was written in like Time as the best in NYC and he seemed to have worked with local 52 boom ops but I had nobody to ask to verify about it, claimed there was a surgery but generally costs 100k, I never did it, went back to nor cal to find I should take care of my mother and fixed my spine, doing PT, to where I can walk and transfer from bed and chairs normally but I'm pretty sure I can never boom op again, been about over 7 years since my injuries, I worked on like Frances Ha and shit in NYC; could get work from like script to screen in LA and like Ogilvy Mather in NYC when I was in NYC and never joined the union, but passed the written and oral exam in 2009; I got like nothing going on in my life and figured I'd probably have to do more non union feature film work to get back in but figured maybe there is a miracle worker who's gotten boom ops working again... I practice for 5 minutes and the pain level and muscle spasms that result from it make it see impossible to me that I ever boom operated in the past, I have hella audio to prove I was good once though, non-union with no deal memos made it like so I own the recordings and keep it as proof I did have a career and was good... it's all on encrypted hard drives that are offline and don't connect to the internet so everyone's privacy is still safe... I got like swatted by a non union director I went to school with and almost had my hard drives confiscated though... fucking local police are assholes, especially when you live in a corrupt town like I do... anyways, yeah, who is the boom operator doctor in LA? I will go down and pay out of pocket. I am with Kaiser though, medicaid life but I have an inheritance that I'm willing to use to fix my spine if it's fixable, I don't really believe the fascia is fixable though... that is what I'm told I injured for life, my fascia...
fascia is patterned by muscle activation; lots of really subtle pt to fix one's posture, balance, though thats easier said than done. Imo it's sorta analogous to gear timing. I'm speaking anecdotally of personal experience; chronic pain is a bitch.
A "third" or "utility" is the third person in a three-person sound crew. They provide logistical assistance for the sound department. Their responsibilities include maintaining a follow cart with all of the supplies that we need, ordering additional expendables, filling out the time cards and invoices, but must also be able to wire people and be a second boom when needed on set. In fact, a third is a very poor boom operator (which is quite frequently the case), then I try to improve their skills. And if they are good, and understand the concept, then they end up in my short list of great thirds.
@@kstrain1 Thanks Ken! This is really unheard of here in switzerland. Most Location sound guys are a one-man-show unfortunately. So that's why i don't really know the terminology. Have a good one :)
Bruv. I’ll be honest, I skipped through this whole video waiting for you to pick up a boom and all you did was chat nonsense and eventually picked up your mic stand. Don’t care. Boring. How you going to show booming when there is only you on the stage. Will definitely not follow. Boomers check out people like Arthur Fenn from the UK.
One of the best sound educators on and off social media. Excellent job Ken! I look forward to when and how you choose to release the rest.
Where is the rest of the class? I read the notes, great nuggets of knowledge...Would love to see the rest of the class.

Amazing stuff man I'm studying sound design and I worked my first short as a Boom a few months ago. This video inspired me! #Burbank
Thank you!
Hi Ken, do you have any masterclasses planned for Ireland or England in the future?
We've got two coming up in Austria in March. And we did a London Masterclass last September.
@@boomrightmasterclass how could I have missed that...any chance you come back to Austria any time soon? :) all the best from Tirol
Really good like awesome 👏

Hello! I want to watch the rest of the class but the link is broken? Is there any other way to gain access please? Thank you!
Hey Allison, I just fixed the link. It had changed, thanks for letting me know.
Hello, I can't buy your masterclass on Video Mantis, it's says No payment methods is available. is there a solution ? Thanks in advance :)
I checked with VideoMantis, they found an error in the site. It's been fixed, make sure to clear your cache and try again.
@@boomrightmasterclass thanks for your answer, still the same issue for me... I'm from Switzerland, maybe it's not available for our country..
@@allan_mantilleri I sent another message to VideoMantis. Did you clear your cache?
@@boomrightmasterclass Yes I did :(
Too bad for me, really want to see your masterclass. Is there an other place where I can find it?
Alot of you know
What is a "third"? What's his or her role?
A "third" or "utility" is the third person in a three-person sound crew. They provide logistical assistance for the sound department. Their responsibilities include maintaining a follow cart with all of the supplies that we need, ordering additional expendables, filling out the time cards and invoices, but must also be able to wire people and be a second boom when needed on set.

@@TinelCH I go to Switzerland at least once a year to visit with my girlfriend's family in St. Gallen, we should meet up!
@@kstrain1 cool! Messaged you on IG
Wow 5 mins. Still nothing.
Bruv. I’ll be honest, I skipped through this whole video waiting for you to pick up a boom and all you did was chat nonsense and eventually picked up your mic stand. Don’t care. Boring. How you going to show booming when there is only you on the stage. Will definitely not follow. Boomers check out people like Arthur Fenn from the UK.
