A companion piece to The Cello Lesson mini documentary, Microphone Shootout takes viewers inside one of CCM faculty member Aaron Almashy's audio/sound production classes as he and his students record student cellist Audrey Hudgens' lesson with CCM faculty member and Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra cellist Alan Rafferty.
The Microphone Shootout behind-the-scenes video was created by students and faculty members from CCM's Media Production Division. Watch the mini documentary below.
As the largest undergraduate program at CCM, Media Production majors are uniquely positioned within a creative culture at CCM that fosters collaborations with actors, musicians, dancers, set designers and other performing artists as they develop their digital storytelling skills for film, television, internet and mobile media distribution.
