trentsteele Posted February 22, 2011 Posted February 22, 2011 just to let everyone know SAE do a BACHELOR OF AUDIO PRODUCTION which is under fee help. so even if you have no money you can do the course because the government pays for it. untill you earn over 45k you dont have to pay it back. production is too hard on your own get the government to help you become a better producer..... if production is your thing you would be silly not to. and the latest macbook pro for $500 for all NEW students.. bring it on. do it in byron bay and live on campus with the help of gillard another good option.....Any one can do the course no prerequisites easy to get into.I start in 2 weeks. yay....

Jaz Posted February 22, 2011 Posted February 22, 2011 this may be a dumb question but is this at Uni or Tafe? Quote
awesome88 Posted February 22, 2011 Posted February 22, 2011 looks like it's an audio engineering college. Quote

awesome88 Posted February 22, 2011 Posted February 22, 2011 looks pretty good. If it's accredited and funded by HELP, there wouldn't be any problems with the qualification Quote
CBG Posted February 22, 2011 Posted February 22, 2011 Massively overpriced for a highly competitive industry. You still have to pay back the money and by the time you earning enough to do so, you are gunna be worrying about car loans and mortgages. Better off doing what I have done and find a proper Uni or tafe and doing it there. My course cost $1.5k and all the teachers are highly experienced. Quote

Tomy Posted February 22, 2011 Posted February 22, 2011 i think that tafe offers the same course heaps heaps cheaper. i went to SAE and did EMP (electronic music production) 3k for 6 months. was alright. not great Quote
Tomy Posted February 23, 2011 Posted February 23, 2011 saying that my SAE teacher was really good. but probably could have done a few sesion's with him for kish kash and learnt the same. Quote

jbeard Posted February 23, 2011 Posted February 23, 2011 I was looking at EMP there and after reading a few different articles online about it the general consensus seems to be they aren't bad at all, but not worth the money at all either. Better off paying for 1 on 1 sessions with your money IMO. Quote

trentsteele Posted February 24, 2011 Author Posted February 24, 2011 cost me in the long run i guess but i have no money to do 1 on 1 lessons. if i ever earn over 45k a year then ill gladly pay it back. highly competitive industry is an understatement. thinking of becoming a successful producer is an unrealistic dream but i get a degree out of it. and good knowing i can commit to something full time for a few years.I just wanna be able to make music that im actually happy with not banging my head against a wall.each to their own.

Tomy Posted February 24, 2011 Posted February 24, 2011 yeah good call man. i'll never be in a possition to qualifiy for the gov. assistance anyways so lucky you. I'll buy the mac off you for $700 i enjoy'd doing EMP course it put my on the right track thats for sure. but i needed more. way more. but it got me to where i am. Quote
Tomy Posted February 24, 2011 Posted February 24, 2011 thats a serious offer on the mac too by the way. Quote
ChevChelios Posted February 28, 2011 Posted February 28, 2011 Currently doing this course, I think you all have an entirely warped view of what you get out of the it though. If you are good and apply yourself, you will get a career in the audio industry no doubt, because the lectures (well the ones in sydney at least) are very highly respected in the audio world. I think the percs of the whole thing aren't apparent until your actually part of the community.But at the OP, If you've enrolled to learn how to make electronic music you're kidding yourself, its not a course to become the next big DJ, sure it covers it, but the BAP lecturers care very little for it.

awesome88 Posted February 28, 2011 Posted February 28, 2011 good to hear you are enjoying it chev, and good to hear it's a good course Quote
