I teach audio production from the perspective of someone who actively works in music and film. My approach is grounded in fundamentals, critical listening, and real-world decision-making rather than shortcuts, presets, or trends.
The goal is not just to learn how to do something, but to understand why it works so those decisions hold up across different sessions, genres, and projects.
Teaching and Background
I’ve been a lecturer at the Australian College of the Arts (Collarts) since 2016, teaching audio production and post-production at a university level across music and film. My teaching focuses on bachelor-level programs and practical, industry-aligned outcomes.
Teaching has sharpened my own process and reinforced the importance of clarity, intent, and musical decision-making over technical novelty. Everything I teach is informed by ongoing professional work, using the same principles applied in the studio and in post-production environments.
Who This Is For
My educational work is aimed primarily at:
Beginners and hobbyists learning audio production
University and college students developing practical skills
Independent artists wanting to better understand their own recordings and mixes
Producers and engineers looking to strengthen core fundamentals
The focus is on building confidence, listening skills, and repeatable workflows rather than memorising settings or chasing trends.
Courses
I’m currently developing a series of focused, standalone courses covering key areas of audio production. Each course is designed to be concise, practical, and immediately usable.
The first course, Compression Mastery, explores compression as both a technical and musical tool. It focuses on understanding dynamics, control, and feel through real-world examples, listening exercises, and practical workflows rather than abstract theory.
Additional courses covering other areas of mixing, production, and post-production will follow.
Stay Informed
More educational material and courses will be released over time. Details will be shared here as they become available.
