Editors Keys Joins the Music Industries Association to help develop students in schools nationwide

Sept. 8, 2010 - PRLog -- Editors Keys has today joined the MIA (Music Industry Association), becoming an official supply partner.  Over the coming months, Editors Keys.com is looking into exciting ways to support schools, colleges and universities to help develop young creative talent and further develop the UK’s exciting music production and media culture.

Editors Keys.com is based at Piccadilly House in Manchester city centre and produces its own brand of specialist shortcut editing keyboards, studio microphones and recording equipment, which are used by over 30,000 home users, in addition to well known productions companies such as Universal, ITV and the BBC.

Joining with the MIA will allow Editors Keys to take part in organized charity events, further develop business ventures as well as having a say in local and government issues regarding how the music industry is run.

One new area Editors Keys is looking to develop is their ‘creative editing in schools’ scheme, which will see Editors Keys giving away over £250,000 worth of its dedicated editing keyboards and recording equipment to schools within the UK and US. Editors Keys will be giving away editing keyboards to help speed up the work flow of audio/video productions and recording studio equipment to allow students to record their own project inside and outside of school hours.

“I think we can really help the young people, by offering the tools which will allow children and young students to break down the boundaries set by using complex programs. If we can help just one child develop a great song or video project by offering our products, then we could steer young people into exciting new positive futures.” Mark Brown, Company Director Editors Keys.com

The new scheme will launch within the next three months and Editors Keys is calling on the support of other media companies and training facilities to donate time and/or products to help the regions students.
