Giorgi Baino
Director

Giorgi Baino earned her first tape recorder at the age of fourteen by selling personalized Christmas Cards. She wanted to be more like her grandfather, who found it necessary to hide the tools on 5-year-old Giorgi, as she loved to investigate, disassemble and diagnose all that was electrical.

Through the years Giorgi’s mentors took her on the journey of building amplifiers and analyzing recordings. Her love for music piqued her desire to sing and write her own songs. Giorgi recorded internationally for several labels including RCA Records and Atlantic Records. Her group “Giorgi ‘n the Bad Girls” video earned The BU Film Unit the Honorary Foreign Film Award for music videos.

During her “Bad Girl” days Giorgi worked with many award-winning engineers and producers, who often put Giorgi behind the recording console. She eventually went on to produce and engineer hundreds of projects. Giorgi has gone on to become the chief engineer for several post production houses throughout New England. She is also well known in the recording community as a consultant and problem solver.

Giorgi is presently on staff at the University of Southern Maine’s radio station WMPG, where she has taught Protools. She has also created a number of radio personalities, including Gale Winds, The SceneQueen, and Doctor Audio. Her Doctor Audio pieces were created to help recording enthusiasts find solutions to their problems and assist them in their quest to record their own recording projects.

Giorgi holds her master’s of fine arts from Goddard College. Giorgi majored in surround sound recording, mixing, and mastering and audio restoration. Giorgi aspires to bring the latest technology to Maine and pass it on to her students.
