With a strong mobile entertainment and gaming industry in North America, there’s an increased demand for sound designers. Modelling standard industry workflows, George Brown College’s Sound Design & Production program focuses on creating sound for film, television and games. Students work in collaboration with other media programs to create sound for shorts, animations and games.

Whether recording audio in-studio or in the field, as a Sound Design & Production student, you will learn to master technical skills and refine your artistic style.

Without a sound designer to create the perfect soundscape, the film, television and game industries are incomplete. Applying the technical and conceptual aspects of sound, you will become audio storytellers working alongside visual production artists to re-create the real world in a digital context.

You will learn how to create sound from scratch through capturing real-environment sounds as well as Foley creation. At George Brown’s studio production facilities, you will learn mixing, video game audio, dialogue editing and ADR, sound design and recording to re-create audio landscapes.

What You’ll Learn

  • Create sound files for live action dramatic short films, animated short films, video games and interactive media.
  • Produce a score recording session and arrange a provided composition to fit a given visual sequence.
  • Collaborate with key principals and production personnel in the creation of complementary sound design for a storytelling environment.
  • Design sound for the appropriate medium and genres considering the cultural and social significance of those designs.
  • Plan audio design and production projects that reflect scope and vision for pre-production, production and postproduction.
  • Apply entrepreneurial strategies relevant within the field of sound design to develop a viable business plan for freelance sound design professionals.
  • Assess existing and emerging market trends in sound design products and services for production project purposes.
  • Adhere to legal principles, government legislation and regulations, copyright and contract requirements and professional and industry codes of conduct.

I enrolled in the Analytics for Business Decision Making course at George Brown College in 2021, hoping to gain the skills necessary to thrive in the rapidly growing field of data analytics. While the course provided a foundational understanding of data analysis and business decision-making, I found the content to be somewhat lacking in depth and relevance to the current job market.

The course covered basic concepts in data analytics, including data processing, statistical analysis, and data visualization. It also introduced tools like Excel and SQL, which are essential for any data analyst. However, the curriculum felt outdated and did not delve deeply into more advanced and industry-relevant tools and techniques such as Python, R, or machine learning algorithms, which are highly sought after by employers today.

While there were some hands-on projects, they were often simplistic and did not simulate real-world business problems effectively. The lack of exposure to complex, real-life datasets and scenarios meant that the practical skills gained were not useful at all.
