I started this job 3 years ago with your videos. I'm currently working on television series and motion pictures. I owe you a lot of things I've learned. I follow you sometimes, and from what I've seen, you've come to a much better position. I wish the best for you. Thank you for everything.

I got fired from my 15 years old job as sound editor and mixer. I feel a little like just starting over I have to get used to freelance work, which I did but not all the time. Thanks for this video!

I studied sound for visual media in 2021 learning and using pro tools, it was a year long course, these videos and tutorials have added so much to my arsenal, this has just inspired me to try new things. I am yet to get my dream job off the ground (Manchester UK based sound guy here!), but I'm enjoying working on passion projects and short films here, so if anyone is looking for someone in the UK that's pretty reliable and is a fast worker (the video DOES advise on networking hahaha), hit me up! Thank you once again Mr Boykin, I really appreciate the content.

Hey Thomas! Just wanted to say that since your first couple of videos, you have guided me through some tough and hard jobs and without your help it would've been a lot harded and, above all, not sound as good! Looking forward for more! Thank you!

Love this! Thanks a lot!

Great video!! Something that helped me a lot in the beginning (and I still do it) is referencing other film mixes and sound designs constantly while working on a project. It can give you a starting point when thinking about levels, dialogue eqs, reverb, etc.

I started 4 years ago. After 10 years of working with artists, I was once an artist myself. But it’s not just that I’m tired of it, but the songs have become meager in content. With a knowledge base, I moved into cinema. 2 student films without a budget, and now I’m working with major brands and already have 2 feature films. He also mastered the skills of a foley artist. It seems to me that in the field of cinema you must have the knowledge, and sometimes even the skills, of other sound specialists, such as a sound designer, boom operator, foley artist and a little bit of a composer.

Thank you! Keep us learning! Glad for every new video and watching all olds over again 😉👉👉

Thank you very much Tom, now i know how to network. Maybe I'm overthinking it somehow, and rely on my skills alone too much. I reached a point where I feel stuck with this kind of career, but knowing the reality out there for other sound-post guys/gals, I have a feeling that this could work. Need to go to one of my local film festival!

That's some great info. Networking for me was key, but I did it in school. I think even now the majority of the work I do is connected somehow to the network i built in school. Some people who didn't go to school for film have asked me how to get involved and I'm honestly at a loss because that's how I did it and i can't imagine cold networking.

Thanks for all your videos Thomas! You've been of great help so far!!

Thank you for the advice, Tom. I love your content and look forward to seeing more! I have my first (unpaid) gig doing post sound for student short coming up soon, and I owe you big for giving me the confidence to land it.

Thanks for tips Tom! I can confidently say that your videos helped me to get a job in professional audio post which I started earlier this year, so just wanted to show my appreciation for that! Really glad to see you posting more regularly & I hope you keep it up if you have the time because you and your channel are a goldmine of information for us all :) BTW awesome work on John Wick 4!!

thanks tom, i followed your channel since a year and i leaned some valuable insight in sound design. still struggling a bit on finding strong clients but is getting there.

Hey, thanks a lot! I really appreciate it.

Really apriciate the advice!
