Foothill
gives students the core skills needed to
enter the entertainment industry.
Commercial Music is one of the largest
parts of the Entertainment Industry in
California, an industry that includes
Film, Television, Radio, the Recording
Arts, and New Media. Students from our
program have gone on to work with R.E.M.,
Third Eye Blind, Neil Young, Polygram
Records, Universal Music Group,
Digidesign, Geffen Records, Microsoft,
Bill Graham Presents, Nine Inch Nails, and
a host of major industry players.
We are a
Digidesign® sponsored school, we offer
Waves® Plug In Certification, we sponsor
the Annual West Coast Songwriter's
Conference featuring workshops and song
screenings with industry A&R reps, we
enroll over 400 students per quarter.
Students have access to individual
workstations in our classes, each of which
features the latest version of Pro Tools,
Reason®, Final Cut Studio®, along with
signal processing plug-ins from Waves® and
McDSP®. Students in our recording arts
classes also have access to Studio A with
a 16 Channel D-Command Control Surface and
a Pro Tools® 11 HD system, and Studio B
with a C 24 mixing surface, and the same
software as Studio A. We have a full
compliment of high end microphones, all
the plug-ins and one of the best sounding
rooms in the Bay Area - in fact we won a
California Music Award in 1998 for
engineering the "World Beat Album Of The
Year" in Studio 1100!.
