I trained on the job, as a film editor and later as a sound editor, and I feel that learning from more experienced pros is the best way to master any craft. However, now that I teach my trade at a college, I am at times envious my students who are receiving a better general sound education than I did at their age. True, the craft must be learned by doing - with guidance, but a certain amount of classroom teaching can be helpful.
