SCOTTSDALE, AZ – Spatial, a provider of 3D sound design tools, announced a creator curriculum program in partnership with Conservatory of Recording Arts & Sciences (CRAS).
More details from Spatial (www.spatialinc.com):
Spatial, the award-winning immersive audio company and software service, announced the Spatial Inside program composed of educational resources and curriculum for audio engineers seeking to unlock the next frontier of immersive sound design.
Spatial Studio 101 is the foundational curriculum that offers creators a course that teaches core principles of Spatial Studio, the real time editing environment for designing immersive sonic experiences. Unlike linear audio design software, Spatial Studio offers sound and experience designers the ability to sonically transform a space with sound objects that replicate real-world physics such as movement, relations, and reactions to cues inside a soundscape.
To deepen the pool of qualified immersive audio design talent, Spatial partnered with the Conservatory of Recording Arts & Sciences, (CRAS) one of the top-rated audio engineering and music production schools teaching hands-on skills and concepts for audio and sound design, to develop Spatial Studio 101. The partnership with CRAS enrolls audio engineers and creatives seeking to diversify their skillset and unlock commercial work opportunities with Spatial’s leading customers and clients.
CRAS’, Director of Education and Core Technologies and Apple Distinguished Educator, Robert Brock, helped Spatial develop the foundational course, Spatial Studio 101. Robert Brock, is best known for his work on Audiokinetic’s Wwise game audio integration software and editorial as well as authorship roles for the Apple Logic and Apple Soundtrack Pro – educational resources used by professionals around the world.
“With Spatial Studio 101, the goal was to ease any level audio engineer into Spatial Studio and help guide students to be creative – it’s about inspiring people towards creativity,” Brock said. “The beauty of Spatial is there’s no hard set of steps to make something that sounds good, we drafted something that inspires.”
Spatial boasts one of the most advanced immersive audio software platforms in existence, offering near-limitless layering of sounds across dozens of audio channels. The technology enables active immersive audio experiences that react to real-time environmental changes, creating truly unique sound experiences from person to person. Immersive audio has already been widely touted as the next big thing in music, film and television, with Spatial’s advanced software leading the charge into real world interactive soundscapes.
Spatial Inside will feature educational programs across the following curriculum areas:
- Spatial Studio 101: the two-day foundational course offered in-person and remotely; teaches any level of sound design engineers the opportunity to build immersive soundscapes using the unique features only available in Spatial Studio.
- Spatial Education: is a customized curriculum developed for educators by educators. Spatial Studio 101 will be adapted and customized for audio programs looking to enhance their current courses or professional development.
- Backstage Pass: the free license that allows creators and educational institutions to design immersive 3D audio environments easily with Spatial Studio with access to the Spatial platform and Spatial Guide – self led tutorials for using Spatial. Backstage Pass enables a large ecosystem of creators to publish dynamic 3D soundscapes directly to Spatial commercial customers for use across a wide variety of spaces and experiences.
