To learn media production, one must do media production
Subjectivity in ‘creative’ technical operations
Informed by experience Can music mixing be taught? It can
be learned…

Guided work experience
A mentor can guide students through “pre-flight” checks (setup and soundcheck)
Students can take control after “taxi” and “take-off”

Benefits of close guidance/ mentorship during work experience
Students get to “operator” status quicker than by traditional work experience
