In fact full disclosure I’m Lead Organiser for MediaCampBucks07. 

The event is taking place at Bucks New Uni, and is in the format of an un-conference, and will be a great day of mind-share and networking potential.

Un-conference? 

Yup, that means it is everything a conference isn’t! You know those events you’ve been to where you sit and get spoken to for an hour while someone flips through a power-point presentation? – this is not going to happen, here, at MediaCampBucks07 you will interacting with everyone, the sessions are more like “brain-storms”, or discussion sessions around a particular topic, as a way forward for asking the question “what comes next”, “how can I use this myself”.

Grass Roots

OK, so I actually do not like this term, I find it a bit “wanky” and “tree-hugging”, but what I’m trying to imply is that the event is for people like you, people who might know me, or a friend of a friend, or in some other connected way. It’s also about reaching out to the local community and getting them engaged to learn something new about social media and how to “move mountains” with it.

We are not opting for some huge promotional campaign, we are starting small and then leveraging those involved to set the scene for each successive MediaCamp, which may well be in YOUR Town or City.

I’m hearing from a diverse set of career people interested in this, and most of those seem to be from people who are not currently using social media, those who have heard the rumbles and think they ought to find out about it all, this is perfect and so definitely the point. 

However, If you already “waist-deep” in social media we want YOU to come along and share your tricks, tell us how you use it for your business, how are you embracing any of this?

Well that’s it for now, but I do want to know what type of things you might want to learn about, what sessions would excite you, what do you want to learn, what do you “need” to learn?

Hi all and Happy New Year!

Thanks for the warm welcome. It feels great to be on board joining the professional Audiocourses team. It is really exciting that Audiocourses now takes on Audio for Video. I will be the production advisor for this new module and I am inviting everyone interested in audio for video in one way or another to join the course. If you are already in the business this can be a chance to fill any gaps and get a more comprehensive base to stand on and if you are not, this can be your first step into a new career! One thing I can promise you though, is that either way, you will get your hands dirty. This is a tough module but you wont regret it!
If you want more detailed information about the module, check under the Courses menu.

06 sees us rolling out yet another module for the popular City & Guilds Sound Engineering courses .

ACAV03 Audio For Video sits very well with the current modules we have running and with the heavy video slant we hope to hook up with some of you “video types”.

Sound for the moving image is a growth area in the industry with an ever increasing need for people with cross skills and adaptable attitudes, willing to embrace very new technologies, very quickly.We are all excited and looking forward to what the Audio For Video students will produce in terms of soundtracks for film and animation or even TV and games.

I’m personally really looking forward to this one.
