Student Success Stories

season to book Elevate Live performances. For those of you who

don’t know, Laurie’s son CJ and daughter Kaitlin were in our

program a few years ago! CJ worked with Hank Stone (Elevate’s

acting coach) to prepare for an acting career and Laurie had the

courage to move the two of them, and eventually the entire family

to LA to further that career. Laurie was generous enough to use

challenging job considering the time difference and we just want

great success so far, appearing in TV shows, commercials, and is

“Unbroken” that is coming out on Christmas Day! Thanks again

RECORDING TIP:

Make sure you and the engineer have the same vision go over yoursongs with him/her before recording. Before booking your studio time,ask to hear other material the engineer recorded.

Remember, itʼs emotion and feeling that make the best song, notnecessarily the best technical rendition.

If you mess up a part while recording, donʼt stop and start over. Thatcan easily cause you to burn out. Instead, check to see if the engineercan punch in the correction.

Update from Marisa and Sarah: Have a great summer, elevate studios! Looking forward to all of our camps!
