At Point Blank Los Angeles we are constantly connecting with industry professionals to host masterclasses for our students. Recently, we’ve had the likes of Mix Master Mike, Robot Koch, and Sample Magic CEO Sharooz Raoofi join us at Mack Sennett Studios to impart their knowledge, giving us an insight into their creative processes. On the 17th August, musicologist, DJ and producer Chris Holmes will be joining us to lead a remix masterclass and live performance, before holding a Q&A and discussing the many different ways to make a living in the industry. This is a student/graduate only event. To register your interest head to the Eventbrite page.
