Stage Sessions is a student led passion project event held at SAE University College at the end of every Trimester. Following the success of the first Stage Sessions event in early 2024, Head Event Organiser/Marketer Alisa Maekinen and Head Audio Engineer/Co-Event Organiser Olivia Hope recognised the potential and saw an opportunity to grow the project into a brand and recurring event series. Driven by a shared commitment and belief in supporting student organised events, both Alisa and Olivia are dedicated to creating new opportunities to help students and young creatives build their professional portfolios through real world Experiences.
Olivia recruits fellow engineers studying Audio at SAE, and prepares them for the show. She develops production riders, organises meetings, and conducts tech runs with the performing artists. Her main goal is for young passionate engineers like herself to gain experience in their craft by working together as a team. Olivia also operates Front of House, live mixing and recording each set through the Midas M32 Live Sound Desk into Pro Tools. After mixing and mastering the sessions, all final edits are provided to the artists and crews to apply in their portfolios.

Whether you are studying Film, Audio, Music, Animation, or Creative Industries, Stage Sessions offers and encourages collaboration across disciplines. Providing hands-on experience in a real world production setting, each event features a new lineup of performers, audio crews, and film teams, giving a new set of students each trimester the chance to step into different roles and gain valuable experience.
