Clip 2: http://www.razor.tv/site/servlet/segment/main/entertainment/asiapop/22668.html

The band members commented on how “[lecturers] are only a phone call away” and provided help with technical issues the band faced during the whole production process. Iqbal highlighted how just after 6 months of enrolment at the SAE Institute put him on the path to learning the right “techniques to get the right sound”.

The school provides valuable hands-on experience; the band told Razor TV viewers how they used the school assignment as an opportunity to record a music video with the guidance, supervision and counsel from lecturers. The clip showed how the interactive pedagogy of the SAE Institute is one that encourages experiential learning, through which students are not spoon-fed but are encouraged to participate in a vibrant learning culture.
