Luke completed his BA (Hons) Creative Music Production & Technology in 2024 and has started his career in the industry. Read how he is getting on and his advice to students interested in following a similar career path. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
I produce audio for radio and digital audio (Spotify, DAX, YouTube) advertisements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
My favourite thing about my work is that every job is different, there\u2019s always neat little learning moments and nothing is ever \u201ccopy and paste\u201d from previous work. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
My proudest achievement in my career so far has been creating audio adverts and editing dialogue for some of my favourite film releases this year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
My time at CCCU and the course allowed me to deep dive into hi fidelity audio production and editing. I used the studios religiously to get as much experience as possible so that I now can be taken to any studio and work out how everything works in a very short space of time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Studying Music Production at university wasn’t just about landing a job straight after graduating – it was about building the skills, creativity, and industry understanding that helped me stand above the rest. You\u2019ll gain hands-on experience with professional tools and facilities, collaborate with like-minded students, and learn how to bring your ideas to life. Along the way, I’ve developed a portfolio, made valuable connections, and discovered where my passion fits in the music and audio world. It’s a launchpad \u2014 giving you everything you need to create opportunities and shape your future in the industry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The best piece of career advice I have ever been given is: \u2018Throw yourself into everything and anything you can that will grow your knowledge or experience.\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In what ways did you change and develop throughout your course?\u00a0 \u00a0<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
CCCU helped me develop my productions, whether that be from composition to engineering, mixing and editing, all are vital to my current career path.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
What was the most challenging part of your course? How did you tackle this?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
As a young parent I was also tackling the balance between University and my duties at home, however the tutors were very hospitable and helped me navigate around both.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ensuring that balance is a continuous struggle and my goal for the next five years is to continue working with big brands and maintaining a healthy work\/life balance. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
