Welcome
In the professional field, sound designers, composers and mix engineers develop soundtracks for all types of media. Sound designers work specifically with dialog, sound effects and Foley. Composers, music editors and music supervisors develop legal scores. Mix engineers prepare all three stems (dialog, SFX and music) for a variety of release formats.
In the context of a comprehensive art and design university setting, SCAD offers the only B.F.A., M.A. and M.F.A. programs focusing on sound design for media—film, television and video games. In addition, SCAD is a certified Pro Tools school, offering students the opportunity to become certified by a Pro Tools and ICON expert before graduation.
