IADT Digital Audio Production Team Wins Award at AES Nashville Spring Mixer

Nashville, TN (Vocus) May 14, 2009

The annual Nashville Audio Engineering Society (AES) Spring Mixer competition was won by three Digital Audio Production program graduates of International Academy of Design & Technology (IADT). Dayan Raily, Josh Spencer and Scotty Baker were in the final term of their studies at IADT when they were chosen by the faculty to represent the school at the event. This year’s competition included: IADT, the Art Institute, Belmont University, Middle Tennessee State University (MTSU) and SAE Institute. In the previous years, MTSU had taken the trophy twice and Belmont University won 3 times. This year, 5 teams from local colleges and universities competed and were provided the same, professionally-recorded tracks 2 weeks prior to the Spring Mixer. The teams then mixed in identically-equipped rooms at MTV studios in Nashville. Each team had 8 hours to work on its project which was to result in a 5-minute final mix that was presented to the judges.

This year’s judges, Benny Quinn, Steve Tillisch, Randy Poole, Garth Fundis, and Vance Powell played excerpts of the submissions for the audience and also publicly gave their critiques to the contestants. A list of artists that these men have worked with reads like a Who’s Who of music across many genres, a sampling includes: Alabama, Backstreet Boys, Jimmy Buffet, Eric Claption, George Clinton, Elvis, Aretha Franklin, Wynonna Judd, Martina McBride, George Strait, Trisha Yearwood, and CeCe Winans.

Jeff Tackett, who is the chair of IADT’s Digital Audio Production Department, has been a member of AES since 1982, having joined when he was a student. He is currently a member of the AES Nashville Executive Committee and he has been very actively involved with the organization throughout his career. “We are proud of the efforts of our students,” said Tackett. “This event provided a terrific transition as they embark on their careers.”

The five audio industry professionals from Music Row evaluated the productions on:

    Sonic Integrity-Lows to highs
    Depth – Front to back
    Stereo Stage or environment
    Dynamic Range
    Presentation of lead vocal/lead instrument
    Emotional content or feel of the mix
    Preparation for mastering-dynamic range available for mastering process
    Creativity
    Documentation

“This year was significant as IADT unseated the longstanding wins shared only by Belmont and MTSU,” said Mike Porter, chair of the AES Nashville section. “The Spring Mixer is a highly anticipated event each year. Nashville is fortunate to have industry professionals who are willing to critique the work of those who are working toward becoming mixers and recording engineers in this profession.”

The Audio Engineering Society, now in its sixth decade, is the only professional society devoted exclusively to audio technology. Its membership includes leading engineers, scientists and other authorities and it provides education, events, publications and other resources for its members.

About The International Academy of Design & Technology

IADT provides educational programs that are designed to prepare students for professional opportunities and career success in select design and technology fields. IADT has been an established institution for more than 25 years and has 10 other campuses across the US. Since the Nashville campus opened in 2004, IADT has served the needs of students for employment and career advancement and the needs of industry for qualified professionals at the Associate of Applied Science and Bachelor of Applied Science degree levels.

The programs focus on career and design areas, such as Digital Audio Production, Fashion Design and Merchandising, Interior Design, Graphic Design, Digital Media and Animation, and Digital Photography. Courses are currently conducted within the college; however the campus is transitioning to a “Blended Learning” delivery approach which will permit students to take courses both in-house and on line.

The International Academy of Design & Technology – Nashville is accredited by the Accrediting Council for Independent Colleges and Schools (ACICS) and is authorized by the Tennessee Higher Education Commission.

Home Energy Team Expands Network of Home Energy Auditors with New Affiliate in Georgia











Fairfax, VA (Vocus) January 27, 2010

Home Energy Team, which is building the first nationwide network of independent, highly-trained energy auditors, today announced further expansion by adding a new energy auditor affiliate, The Energy Inspectors, that will service homeowners in the Greater Atlanta area. With the new affiliate, Home Energy Team now has skilled, certified auditors in nineteen states helping consumers enhance the energy efficiency of their homes.

Starting this month in a handful of states before expanding nationwide in the coming weeks, the $ 300 million “cash for appliances” program offers consumers energy efficiency rebates for purchases of Energy Star appliances, adding another powerful incentive for homeowners to leverage the expertise of an independent home energy auditor in order to determine how best to improve energy efficiency.

“Adding a new affiliate that will serve Georgia residents in areas North and East of Atlanta (including Decatur, Dunwoody, Chamblee, Doraville and Dunwoody) allows Home Energy Team to build upon its mission to provide consumers throughout the country with an opportunity to enhance the energy efficiency of their home and reduce their carbon footprint,” said Sean Zobaa, President of Home Energy Team.

Unlike various home contractors that claim to conduct energy audits while also trying to sell related services, Home Energy Team affiliates are trained and certified to provide unbiased energy efficiency reviews for existing and new homes. After conducting a home energy audit, each Home Energy Team auditor has access to a trusted network of local contractors available to service recommended energy efficiency upgrades desired by the consumer.

“In today’s economy, every dollar counts for Georgia homeowners who are facing rising energy costs and are increasingly seeking to make a positive impact on their environment,” said Michael Scheiderich, owner of The Energy Inspectors. “As a Home Energy Team affiliate with access to a local network of certified energy efficiency contractors, consumers now have a trusted source for unbiased energy assessments.”

Homeowners in Georgia – and throughout the country – can experience numerous benefits from a Home Energy Team audit:

    Manage Energy Consumption – A Home Energy Team auditor will provide a detailed assessment of each home and provide recommendations to maximize energy efficiency. To help implement the proposed energy saving strategy (energy savings average 30%), the Home Energy Team can provide access to certified energy efficient contractors.
    Mitigate Energy Loss – Older homes in particular are less energy efficient than new homes, and homes more than 25 years old save on average 35% on energy bills. For homes more than 50 years old, the percentage rises to 38% (according to Osprey Media).
    Energy Check Ups Pay Dividends – Even after accounting for the cost of desired energy efficiency upgrades, the average return on investment is 16 percent; and many energy efficient home upgrades are eligible for tax rebates from the Federal government.
    Social Responsibility – According to the non-profit environmental advocacy group, Environmental Defense Fund (EDF), 21 percent of the green house gas emissions in the United States are due to residential energy use – even more than cars. Homeowners who do their part can help to reduce greenhouse emissions.

Katz Mortgage Team Publishes Guide for the Beginning Real Estate Investor










Atlanta, GA (PRWEB) May 16, 2007

Katz Mortgage Team, http://www.KatzMortgageTeam.net, of Amtrust Mortgage Corporation, has announced they have now published a free booklet Advice for the Beginning Real Estate Investor where novice investors can learn how to invest in real estate the smart way….by learning the best strategies, how to find the right property, forming realistic offers, choosing the best mortgage and more.

Advice for the Beginning Real Estate Investor. (a $ 29.95 value) was written by Stephen Katz, Katz Mortgage Team of Amtrust Mortgage who, with his over 14 years of experience in the mortgage industry, has financed thousands of investor properties and, according to Katz ” has seen first-hand the rewards and pitfalls of real estate investing over those years.”

Katz continues, “Although some people feel the golden days of real estate investing is over, that isn’t necessarily true. As with any market, change can mean opportunities for those who are willing to invest the time and energy it takes to becoming a successful real estate investor. What differentiates my book from the many others out there is that my guide begins with a very frank discussion of both the pros and cons of real estate investing. Many readers may walk away realizing that real estate investing is not for them after all. But it’s always better for folks to realize that fact sooner than later. Real estate investing is not a get-rich-quick scheme, and for someone looking for that scenario, they won’t find it in my book.”

A2Z Innovations, Inc. and Your Product Team Launch Pre-Construction Real Estate Teleseminar Series

Sunday, July 3rd, 2011

A2Z Innovations, Inc. and Your Product Team Launch Pre-Construction Real Estate Teleseminar Series










Huntsville, AL (PRWEB) April 20, 2005

Michael C. Zari, president of A2Z Innovations and moderator for the teleseminar series, is excited about the new launch. “Since launching the pre-construction products and infomration sites, we have been flooded with praise in e-mails and calls from our clients, investors, and developers alike. Many of the e-mails contain questions on specifics for getting started in this field of real estate. So in response, we are launching this pre-construction real estate teleseminar series to answer those questions.”

Dr. Chris Anderson, president of Your Product Team, is also very enthusiastic about the teleseminars. “For each of the real estate teleseminars, we go out to the community and ask for specific questions that they have on the topic at hand. This way, our clients get the answers to their questions and we address their topics and issues.”

Since launching http://www.GetPreConstructionDeals.com last month, the partnership has provided superior service to the general visitor and clients alike. Their service is open to both their existing clients and also to new investors. In addition, this material is being offered to the public at absolutely no cost!

Real Estate Investors are drawn to the site from the opportunity to make direct contact with the groups that are offering preconstruction opportunities. Realtors and developers are flocking to the site where they can advertise potential deals directly to the investors. Your Product Team has provided the solution through their new site, though they point out that by providing the information on preconstruction projects on the web site, the owners of GetPreconstructionDeals.com are in no way endorsing these projects. “Purchasing preconstruction projects for personal or investment use does contain inherent risks and any interested party should do their own due diligence” says Dr. Anderson.

A2Z Innovations, Inc. was formed in 2003 to help small companies bring products to market. We partner with companies/entrepreneurs that have access to a market but are having difficulty developing a breadboard, prototype or production-ready product. Typically, A2Z Innovations performs product development on a product equity basis.

Your Product Team was formed to provide the skills, knowledge, and experience necessary to transition feasible concepts to marketable products for businesses and inventors alike. YourProductTeam was co-founded by Dr. Chris Anderson and Michael C. Zari. This dynamic team has been working together since 1986 and have both brought unique ideas and skills to the product development community. Together, they have formed a committed partnership that has spanned across many different products, technologies, and even corporate start-ups.

Dr. Anderson is a private investor and business owner that brings a unique background of business ownership, engineering analysis, and active investing to developing rock solid investment techniques. He and a long-time business partner (Michael C. Zari) formed Your Product Team, Inc. to bring world class investing techniques and tools to the general public. By sharing his own experiences and skills in business and investments, and by partnering with others highly skilled in different aspects related to growing personal finances, Dr. Anderson and Your Product Team provide unique education and high-level training to investors and entrepreneurs. Dr. Anderson received his Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering from North Carolina State University in 1990.

Mr. Zari has been in the product development business for over 18 years, teaming with customers in both the commercial and Government arenas. A 1986 engineering graduate of Stevens Institute of Technology, Mr. Zari went on to obtain a Masters Degree in Electrical Engineering from University of Alabama in Huntsville.

YourProductTeam was co-founded by Dr. Chris Anderson and Michael C. Zari. This dynamic team has been working together since 1986 and have both brought unique ideas and skills to the product development community. Together, they have formed a committed partnership that has spanned across many different products, technologies, and even corporate start-ups.

Dr. Anderson is a private investor and business owner that brings a unique background of business ownership, engineering analysis, and active investing to developing rock solid investment techniques. He and a long-time business partner (Michael C. Zari) formed Your Product Team, Inc. to bring world class investing techniques and tools to the general public. By sharing his own experiences and skills in business and investments, and by partnering with others highly skilled in different aspects related to growing personal finances, Dr. Anderson and Your Product Team provide unique education and high-level training to investors and entrepreneurs. Dr. Anderson received his Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering from North Carolina State University in 1990.

Mr. Zari has been in the product development business for over 18 years, teaming with customers in both the commercial and Government arenas. A 1986 engineering graduate of Stevens Institute of Technology, Mr. Zari went on to obtain a Masters Degree in Electrical Engineering from University of Alabama in Huntsville.
