Today we’d like to introduce you to Darrick Atwater.
Hi Darrick, so excited to have you on the platform. So before we get into questions about your work-life, maybe you can bring our readers up to speed on your story and how you got to where you are today?
I started my own business, Agent Method Productions LLC, because I wanted to take control of my creative journey and bring my unique sound design and production skills to a wider audience. My experience working with various artists, companies, and studios made me realize the potential for my talents to create a niche in the industry while helping others achieve their creative goals.
We all face challenges, but looking back would you describe it as a relatively smooth road?
Perseverance and resilience. In the world of sound design and music production, it’s a constant grind. But staying focused and committed to learning how to pursue my goals most efficiently has allowed me to push though and continue moving forward. Taking breaks as well. Learn to accept stillness from time to time. Easier said than done for me, but it still stands.
Thanks – so what else should our readers know about your work and what you’re currently focused on?
You know, one thing I’m super proud of is creating my own unique blend of music, sound design, and humor through my brand, Agent Method. It’s been a wild ride getting to where I am today professionally. Easy? Ha, not exactly. But it’s been worth every twist and turn.
I kicked off my journey with a solid education, then gained experience working in various studios and production gigs. Along the way, I took risks, like venturing into new genres, and faced challenges head-on. Overcoming those obstacles taught me the power of perseverance and resilience. I learned to adapt and grow, which is pretty crucial in the ever-changing world of audio production.
But hey, life’s not all about work, right? I’ve been keeping that work-life balance in check, squeezing in some outdoor fun and fitness to recharge my creative batteries. That balance has helped me stay on my A-game, delivering killer projects without burning out.
So, what do I want the world to know about my brand and story? Agent Method is all about passion, creativity, and a dash of irreverent humor. My goal is to connect with people through music and sound while sharing a good laugh or two. The journey may not always be smooth, but I’m excited to see where it takes me, and I hope you’ll join me for the ride!
What does success mean to you?
Some of the habits that have contributed to my success include persistence, adaptability, and maintaining a strong work ethic. Staying curious and open to new ideas has also been crucial, as it has enabled me to continuously learn and grow, keeping my skills up-to-date in the fast-paced world of audio production. I am constantly learning and have an appetite to do so; it’s really rewarding to come across new techniques and master them.
