Students were able to assist with mounting and dismount- ing scenes as well as filming artists’ performances. SAE Institute Geneva had the honour of welcoming two icons from the music industry. It was said that these two masterclasses were the events to attend. The first masterclass was given by Tom Pearce. He came to share his experiences in music com- position, sound design as well as gaming, as he is also known to be responsible for the Game Audio pathway at Galaxy Interactive in Belgium.Addition- ally he is a composer at Streamline Studios who also produce video games. The second sched- uled masterclass was given by Dario Dendi, a re- nowned young musical producer, who has worked with groups such as Placebo, Mika, Sophie Ellis- Bextor and The Killers. This masterclass allowed Mr Dendi to teach his skills and “savoir-faire” to stu- dents and the public in the form of a class on rock music production. This was a very successful and unforgettable event for all the students and staff. During the month of July a new masterclass named Multichannel Audio Mastering was held which aimed to explain the different possibili- ties of obtaining a better sound quality in depth. This class was given at SAE Institute Geneva by Giulio Wehrli, a re-recording mixer from Mon- tréal who specialises in films destined for cin- ema, HD television, Blu-ray and the Internet. n GenevaCampusNews Masterclass in progress +++ NIFF & Funkytown +++ Grütli & others +++ Masterclasses with Tom Pearce and Dario Dendi +++ Zombies & make-up artists @SAE +++ NIFF & Funkytown +++ Grütli & others +++ Masterclasses with Tom Pearce and Dario Dendi +++ Zombies & 177 SAE & SAE ALUMNI NEWS // EUROPEAN NEWS Index
