The Factory Underground Method aims to provide students with training through hands-on experience and real-world credits. Our mission is to find current and creative ways to involve our students in productions to build their training, confidence, and résumés. Moreover, our instructors are all working industry professionals, and our “classroom” settings are fully operational studio spaces. Finally, students enrolled in accredited courses are encouraged and expected to take advantage of studio lab hours, where they can come use the studio for their own self-structured projects or classwork in audio and video.
