Music Production
Course Overview
Music production lies at the heart of the music business but is also fundamental to many other creative industries. The skills that the student will acquire in this class will allow them to explore a broad range of fields in music and sound, including audio for moving images. Students will learn how to synthesise/design sounds using electronic software and their own recordings.
These created textures can be used in many different situations, for example:
-
Producing music (songs and backing tracks etc.)
-
Recording vocals (singers, rappers, voice actors)
-
Composing music for games, TV, film and theatre
-
Recording and designing sounds and effects for games, TV, film and theatre
-
Live and recorded sound engineering (controlling of sounds for bands and studio recordings).
-
Sound art
Over the year students will develop the skills and confidence to produce audio using Logic Pro X, which is widely used within the music industry. They will be encouraged to experiment and explore new creative paths, discover how to design sounds through manipulation of digital and recorded sounds and learn the fundamentals of recording and creating their own pieces to build a personal portfolio of sound and music.
We offer a one hour class for our younger students and a Specialist two hour class, for our 11+ students, giving them more focused time on their chosen specialism.
We are now partnered with Sound and Music. Through this partnership students will be involved in the Minute of Listening project where they will create 60 seconds of sound to be featured on Minute of Listening. Minute of Listening is a completely free resource, developed to assist and inspire primary teachers of all levels of musical experience and confidence, to find new ways to engage their class in reflective listening and thinking.
