Multimedia Studio On Campus
An all-digital music recording studio is the newest addition (winter 2009) to the Spring Street International School campus. It houses digital musical recording tools for the creation,
editing and production of musical compositions and recording of live musical performances. The facility augments the growing arts and music curriculum and offers all sutdents on San Juan Island the opportunity to create and record live music.
The studio will enable plans to expand the arts and humanities curricula by offering training in the graphic arts, including photo and video editing and publication tools for the creation of in-house newsletters and a school newspaper. Multimedia tools will also support student projects in a planned expansion of speech and public speaking courses.
Musicians, film students and those interested in graphic arts, multimedia production or broadcasting can create digital materials for their chosen project or special interest, including music DVD, video, film sounds and voice-overs and radio broadcasts.
Spring Street School hopes to enlist the services of island artists, photographers, musicians and videographers to support programs for island students. The studio was built with strong community support and and local, professional, volunteer labor. Grants monies for the Gates Community Foundation as well as local support from the school's community allowed the school to procure and install professional equipment for first class creative programs.
Spring Street International thanks all those who gave their time and expertise to supporting the studio including Christian and Tom Carter, Grisha Krivchenia, David Waldron, SSIS students, Larry Wight, staff of FHHS, Jim Nollman, Jim Bredouw, Joyce Sobel and many others who generously supported the development of the facility.
