This hands-on workshop with one of the region’s most experienced sound professionals offers the opportunity to learn the fundamentals of location sound recording, an overview of essential equipment, how to identify and solve common audio challenges, and setting up a basic interview.
Sound is one of the most powerful — and often overlooked —elements of filmmaking.

No prior sound experience is required to participate.
Vela, who is based in the Rio Grande Valley, has to his credit the acclaimed documentary As I Walk Through the Valley, which premiered at SXSW, and Going Varsity in Mariachi, an official selection at Sundance.
