Want to be a sound designer?

TheatreFace: "Until the last few years, if you wanted to do theatre sound and get a degree or emphasis in audio, you had to make due in undergrad with special projects style courses and practical experience, and then apply to one of the theatre masters programs with an audio emphasis, or find a fine arts program that offered audio instruction. Sound is just beginning to be taught in general undergraduate programs as a mainstay of the curriculum, and it will be a long while yet before it's as basic as intro to lighting or costuming. In many ways, audio is still the 'baby' of theatre fields, even though sound has been with theatre in one form or another since its inception.
