Introducing New Head Studio Supervisor Alex Ferrier
SAE Auckland is thrilled to announce the appointment of a new Head Studio Supervisor, Alex Ferrier. Alex is responsible for the smooth operation of SAE Auckland's state of the art audio, music and film studios, which include a range of recording studios, film-studio and labs, featuring industry-standard digital audio workstations.
Growing up between Montreal
Canada, and Auckland / Tāmaki Makaurau New Zealand, Alex
has a long history in studio and live engineering, sound
design, communication/cultural studies, electronic music
production, songwriting and live performance. Alex is
perhaps best known as one half Auckland rock-duo Skinny
Hobos – whose career accomplishments include countless
tours, three Top 10 singles and a Top 10 album which earned
a nomination for Best Rock Artist at the 2018 Vodafone New
Zealand Music Awards.
Alex joins a raft of industry
practitioners on the staff at SAE Auckland, whose diverse
talents reach into fields of filmmaking, post-production,
engineering, composition, sound design, and much more.
Campus Director Dr Suzette Major is delighted at Alex’s
appointment. “I love having such capable, creative people
join the team at SAE,” she says.
Alex’s broad
range of skills made him an ideal candidate for the
position. “I was so happy to see this position come up at
SAE,” Alex says. “I have never found a job that fits my
skill set more perfectly.”
Alex oversees a
multi-talented team of Studio Supervisors, whose duties
include providing technical support to students during
practical sessions and ensuring that the campus is
maintained on a day-to-day basis. “It’s a great team
with a diverse set of skills that we’re constantly looking
to develop,” he says.
Between his regular work
managing the SAE studios – which are open to students
seven days a week – Alex is working on a new Skinny Hobos
LP, as well as playing at the recent Amplify festival with
Wolfmother, and performing at a sold-out Homegrown 2020
Festival in March. Another SAE staff member Dave
Johnston’s band Villainy also features on the Homegrown
bill.
