|| A Film Interview with Robin Goodchild, Berkleemusic Student ||

May 13, 2009

Greetings from Hollywood, Entertainment Capital of the World.  I actually live right under the HOLLYWOOD sign, which used to read: HOLLYWOODLAND, before the “LAND” fell down after repeated earthquakes.  It is the world’s first themed residential community and believe me, this city really rocks.  This week I’d like you to check out a new BonzFire film we shot about life in the virtual Berkleemusic classroom.  Music was composed and recorded by Robin Goodchild.  Everybody loves a winner…

Robin, a Commercial Music Production graduate of England’s University of Manchester, and on the staff at Ocean Way recording studios in Hollywood, recently completed his first online course with Berkleemusic, Music Theory 101.

“I was surprised at how much I learned—by the end of the course my confidence had grown immensely,” Robin says. “Music Theory crops up in everything that I do, and if I had known about this course a few years ago I think I would be a lot further along by now.”

Hollywood’s famed Ocean Way houses some of the best sounding large live rooms ever built. Constructed in 1958, the studios have been the site of an astonishing number of classic hit records which have sold in excess of a billion copies worldwide.
