- [00:00:01.298]My name is Sonia and I am a sound designer here at
- [00:00:03.832]the Johnny Carson School of Theatre and Film.
- [00:00:05.707]I grew up in Los Angeles and it was definitely a chaotic place.
- [00:00:10.219]Noises everywhere, police sirens, the helicopters and the shootings.
- [00:00:14.380]No lie, it was constant. We needed a change.
- [00:00:18.043]Something... better. Moving here, it's like time slows down. You have time to
- [00:00:22.694]relax, you have time to breathe, you have time to enjoy, and being here now, I know
- [00:00:27.469]that it's my place.
- [00:00:29.026]I would say that Lincoln is, just, a lively city. We love to go out to
- [00:00:32.362]restaurants, just have a good time, have a nice dinner. There's just so many
- [00:00:35.877]things to do if you just go out and look for it.
- [00:00:39.434]In the design and tech program here at UNL we actually try new things that we
- [00:00:43.930]wouldn't expect to be good at. So I've tried lighting design, costume design, a
- [00:00:49.293]paint class, and I found that I had new skills that I didn't even really know about.
- [00:00:54.372]When the lights come on, it's a moment where I can't even breathe for a second.
- [00:01:00.797]Sound is something that is going to capture a person.
- [00:01:03.447]You get that mood; you know where you are at and you're actually in the show.
- [00:01:07.993]My dream job is to be on Broadway and sound design for big shows and just
- [00:01:16.367]seeing my name in lights.
- [00:01:18.524]Faculty treat you as someone that they support. They always help you out,
- [00:01:23.727]they are always here to answer your questions and just make you a better
- [00:01:27.375]person at whatever your skill is.
- [00:01:29.511]It's an important step in life to go to college. You might not have all the
- [00:01:33.646]resources, but it's important to look for them because they are out there.
- [00:01:38.361]In Los Angeles, it was so easy to get lost in the crowd.
- [00:01:41.811]But here I can stand out and be someone.
