We are in the 21st century, year 2010 and we are experiencing a universal major economic crisis. Quite a few of us thought that the new millennium, being such a big deal, would bring great changes and a lot of opportunities; well at least we hoped. Unfortunately, although we have just entered the second decade, the millennium is proving us completely and utterly wrong. Things have changed and if we are to survive we must search for new opportunities and new challenges.
As the cost of living increases the jobs seem to come in a very short supply as time passes by. Times are tough and we desperately need a change so we must focus on a different direction. One part of the work force that has been growing and expanding dramatically but surely in the last five to seven years are Audio Visual jobs and the prognosis is that it will continue its expansion in a rather fast mode.
Audio Visual jobs are found in the corporate division but quite often are also found in the entertainment business. These jobs are usually divided into four types of work which are: recording, editing, producing and managing.
1. Recording can be sound or video or both. The most important aspect of recording is to make sure that all the equipment needed for the job is in good working condition and thereafter to verify the recording quality. Advice and recommendations should be given on how to make the most of the recording.
2. Editing is quite specialised and there is a specific requirement for musical skills, superb hearing and a good knowledge of computer. The editor, co-working with recording, is responsible for the end result of the product; to ensure that the product is of high standard and the clients expectations have been delivered.
3. Producing is responsible for the overall project. The producer in most circumstances directs and guides the recorder and editor and he ensures that the end result has a positive audio visual outcome to people.
4. Managing the entire process until you get the desired result in an audio visual project is a significant position therefore this job is usually given to people with at least ten years of experience in audio visual jobs.
There is no standardisation of the qualifications needed for this line of work. Depending on the employer, some media companies may have need of its entire visual staff to have undergone a training programme before they even consider them for employment where as others may be also interested in someone with a vast experience in the field.
But for those that are interested in audio visual jobs, taking a course will prove quite beneficial for their future career. All you need to do is:
1. Have the qualifications that are needed to attend the training school (e.g. high school diploma)
2. Find the right school for you
3. Enrol and pay for the course
4. Take the course
Four little steps and you can have a bright new future in the exciting world of audio visual jobs.
