Hello. I’m seeking a career in the sound recording industry (movies, music, TV ect) and I plan on attending Stylus music school on Oct 1 (I have been accepted just waiting on funding). One of the requirements for arranging financing is I have to get interview papers filled out by employers and employees in the sound industry. It can be recording, editing, mastering, and producing, pretty much anything to do with audio. I would greatly appreciate if anyone could e-mail me back with the answers to the following questions.

(Employee interview can be found below employer interview)

my e-mail is Tyson_mcc@hotmail.com

Thank you very much,
Tyson McCarney
