Sound Recording

In the present day scenario, a lot of crash courses or short term courses of maybe a month or two are offered for the programme. Make note that these courses hold no value in the market. So, first complete your school education and then pursue a course from a recognized institute.

Some of the popular Sound Recording colleges in India are –

• Film and Television Institute of India
• Satyajit Ray Film & Television Institute
• Bharatiya Vidya Bhavan's Film, TV and Animation Studies
• ICE Balaji Telefilms - Institute of Creative Excellence
• TGC Animation and Multimedia

Yes, only FTII takes entrance examthat is  FTII JET (Joint Entrance Test) but most of the colleges give admissions on the merit basis.

All the colleges have a different criteria for admission in Sound Recording course. But usually for a Bachelors Degree and Diploma courses, candidates must have completed their 10+2 in any subject from a recognized board.

A sound recordist is responsible to record the sound on the location. He/she listen to it to ascertain whether anything is wrong with the take and whether it needs to be re-recorded.

Hello Rashmi There are many colleges/ academy/ institutes /university that offers short term courses for sound mixing and recording. If you have decided to do this than your job is to find the academy/institute of your choice that offers this course. You can pursue the certificate course in this or if you have time than you can go for Diploma. Its upto you that how you will handle both the courses.

Hello Rashmi,

Sound and audio doesn't have much difference, both are identical. Sound or audio engineering is a profession in which an engineer works upon the mixing up of various sounds, overpower them, refines the audio, removes unnecessary noise, cleaning up etc. One who do this may be called as sound mixer, sound technician, and audio technician. Thank you.
