Greetings fellow GearSlutz-
First off, let me get you my life's 2 cents. My name is Justin Phelps. I'm a senior at Grand Island Northwest High here in Nebraska (No Nebraska jokes please!!!
)
I've been active in music and theater all my life. Playing trumpet, piano/keyboard, singing baritone, and writing music. Over the past 2 years I've put together my own modest home studio consisting of:
Korg Triton Extreme 88
Korg D1600 MKII
SCA J99 pre
Peluso CEMC-6 mic
Plus monitors, and several other mics.
Since I am obviously graduating this year, I must now be setting my career and educational goals. But I am at a serious halt in my choices. I can go the traditional schooling route at a four year university, pay through the nose for a degree at a specialized recording school, or gain first hand experience at a studio.
...Cutting to the chase, I'm looking for a studio in
ANY state that would be willing to hire me. Obviously, I have no real-life experience working in a studio, but I can provide graphic design services to help justify hiring me. I currently work at Chief Industries, Inc. doing computer support and graphic design. I am proficient in Adobe Creative Suite and fluent in the Corel Creative Collection. I can provide customers cd cover services, produce advertisements, create logos, and I also make a mean cup of coffee
. I also own a Canon GL2 and do video editing as another hobby. I'd also like to add that I plan to work someday as a producer.
Depending on the location of the studio, I would like to take other recording/entain. business classes or education at a workshop/school at my own cost to help speed up my learning.
I am prepared to give the studio and my career everything I have to offer and I have excellent people skills.
If you'd like my resume or a sample recording/graphic work, feel free to contact me via forum, private message, email, or telephone.
Thanks for your time and consideration!
