Crew Cruising: A DAY IN THE LIFE OF A SOUND TECHNICIAN

Omg finally i need this before getting onboard

Can you advice on how to get such jobs...i am based in South Africa

This is super amaizing ❤ I am on a process of applying such jobs this is so so interesting....

Hello christine my name Yonatan i'm from Ethiopia i want to know and work on cruise ship sound technicians
Can you help me ?

I’ve been a sound tech for a couple years but haven’t used that deck before is that the only brand Royal uses in the theatres?

Im hoping to be a cruise ship musician but i was wondering if you know what the downtime is like if youre a singer and what the schedule is? Also, is it possible to get hired if you have mild disabilities?

That was 14/15 work day?

Hii

Wonder if they’re still using my show files for centre stage 😄

did you guys get training before doing the job?

Causally had a lexicon 480l j chillin 😂 that’s wayyyy more than a basic setup

Great video. May I ask what position is below sound technician and above it? (I guess there's a head sound technician or chief engineer). Thanks!!

When I saw you with that headset on I was so relieved to see they let you take it off for the show. So many times I have heard bad mixes in theatre then looked back to see the engineer with one ear covered, and thought, that explains that! Anyway thanks for sharing!

All your videos were super super interesting mam...you bring a chill and positive vibe..keep doing what you do and thanks for sharing your life with us..

Мне кажется или ты из России?

How do you even get a job as an audio engineer on a cruise ship? Ive been doing live sound for 30 years, and I never thought of looking into an option like this.

Really interesting.

As a musician, I admire the way sound people are invariably the most calm, collected, and Zen people on the planet, while musicians are the most neurotic, grating, and annoying.

Was looking at musician videos to see whether I’d be able to do the job and yours came up in the feed. It gave me some extra insights from a different angle. Thanks.

really interesting video. I run sound for a local theatre, but it's nice to do something different :)

Thanks for the video, very interesting. A quick question. Did you learn your craft on this particular hardware/software? or is one digital desk pretty much the same as another?

God I couldn’t imagine if I hadn’t found a good paying house gig in my hometown and I had to stick myself on a boat to work. 😂

thanks!

I drummed on the brilliance for a few years. Fun to see it's still looking great. Hated the set up for centre stage though lol

Considering applying for this job. How much free time do you have, and how often are you able to disembark and see the sights when at port?

My first ship ❤ So awesome to see the upgrades in the theatre.

Love this! Thanks for sharing!

Thanks for the video, it was very helpful! Im in the middle of the hiring process with Royal Caribbean! I've applied for a lounge technician role, but I'm sure that i will be able to become a sound tech during the first contract! fingers crossed, hopefully i will get on ship by the end of summer :)

Thank you for this Christine! I always wondered about applying for jobs like these because I'd never gotten a chance to observe the position, or understand it from a first person POV. All the best to you and your team!

😎😎✨✨🎶🎶

two years looking for this kind of information thanks

Great video very informative I'm a self taught sound technician but find I never stop learning. Should do a video of the sound setup

"So this is the basic setup we have" while filming an SD8. Oh, the irony :)

What was the gym like on the boat?

Cool Thanks for the Vid Audio Fella

Hi! I was wondering what’s the minimum age you can be to get hired as a sound technician?

Hi Christine. I'm applying for Lighting Technician and this kind of daily life video is exactly what I was looking for, thank you so much

Great to see behind the scenes of a cruise ship performance and all the different departments!
