NO SOUND IN SPACE, Music Production Studio.
(Music producer and Sound engineer assistant & Observer)
In August 2020, I had a chance to do an internship at No Sound in Space studio which is a music production studio, run by Tum Monotone or Sathapat Teeranitayapap, who was a member
of the band, Monotone, under the Bakery Music label.
During this internship, I was inspired by the creative process of music-making and technical know-how. The experience allowed me to explore music composing, recording and sound mixing in more professional approaches, such as complex mixing techniques, positioning instruments when recording, track arrangements, and hardware usage. For example, the "doubling" vocal lines reinforce the fullness of the main vocal and give it more presence in the mix. I also explored "Sidechaining" for drums which creates the harmonising dynamics of rhythm sections. I gained a lot of depth knowledge about applying EQ to tracks by studying frequency ranges. Most importantly, I learned how to operate dynamic control hardware, such as a compressor, which allows elements in a track to interact with each other more smoothly.
Furthermore, I was allowed to observe in detail pitching skills. We must be able to take in those comments and make suggestions. As the clients collaborate in the production and fine-tune their expectations around what is possible and the better alternatives, the practice pushes the boundaries and the quality of the work even further.

The Importance, Status and Context of Garuda in Thai Society
Documentary (2020)
(Producer, Researcher, Author, and Interviewer)
The Importance, Status and Context of Garuda in Thai Society is a documentary that my team and I conducted in The Southeast Asian Creative Content Analysis: from Ethno-Historiography Perspectives class, aiming to highlight some authentic cultures in SEA. We questioned Garuda's omnipresent appearance in Thai society. In the beginning, we conducted our research by visiting temples, palaces and national museums. It is common to see Garudas placed at the highest positions in places such as buildings, temple roofs, and the top floor of the palace - they are never on the ground. We investigated the reasons behind their remarkability.
Thailand has used the Garuda symbol in almost all important aspects: banks, corporations, official letters, etc. We sought the answers by researching and interviewing experts. All of the findings intrinsically correlate and point out that the concept of Garuda is deeply rooted in Thai culture and encompasses all major pillars of our society, including kingship, politics, arts, and beliefs. In the past, politics were completely about religions, Hinduism and Buddhism, and religion ignited the arts. Therefore, everything is intertwined.
