Look at that – it’s day 3 already! Today we’ve had yet more inspiring talks and impressive demos. Have a look at just a few of the events we’ve enjoyed watching and what the highlights have been so far…
Award-winning producer Loic Gaillard came to work in the studio with our students today as unfortunately Andy Rogers was unable to make it. Loic gave some great insight into what it takes to record a live session, and spoke about his company Motor Museum and their experiences working with huge acts including The Kooks, The Arctic Monkeys, Oasis and many more.

The panel have given some great advice so far, including experimental artist Aja:

Deborah Haywood paid a visit today, and delivered a stonking talk for students on her career in film. Spanning from her school days right the way through to her feature film – and her career ever since – she had students laughing and inspired. Thank you, Deborah!

What a finish to the day!
