June 25 - Music Production Field Trip

Our Music Production mentor, Audry Dionisio, had over the teens of her class at Crow's Nest, the recording studio of Ely Buendia. She showed them the work she does as a sound engineer and she showed them the recording process. The teens were given time to write and record their own song. Another teen got to collaborate with Audry and make the soundtrack for his animation. They also got to watch Ely Buendia record a song which is coming out soon! Bonus is the group got to sing a part in one of his other upcoming songs ("Bulaklak sa Buwan" which was released on August 2024). What a special field trip for our teens. A true core memory indeed!
