presentation



  • I believe I am progressing and doing well in is my composition class. I feel I have developed further in terms of musical content that I would implement throughout my pieces, my ability to play the piano has also improved allowing me to play more complex and detailed sequences throughout my composition. this has also helped me in other circumstances for example band workshop. Usually in my band workshop classes, I would play drums however I've been put in a group where I am needed to play a synth using keys. I was able to compose and confidently play a complicated baseline because of my progression playing keyboard from my composition lessons. There are also examples of progression in my composition uploads to Soundcloud.                                                                                                                                                                                            
  • I also feel I'm doing well in my DJing classes, this is because I feel like I am progressing quickly and understanding the concepts that we are being taught and applying them successfully to my own mixes. I have also been able to learn an effective range of different skills from beat-matching to cutting to using EQ.                                                                                                                                                                                           
  • For my final major project for term 3 i was thinking of creating an EP with a few songs and getting some ppl to feature. it would be uploaded online and people would be able to access it through using websites such as soundcloud. it will also be publicised through social media. I also have the idea of showcasing the EP in a DJ set but I'm not too sure about that yet. Ive also had other thoughts I.E live performances but I'm not sure about that

    Music video prep (technical theatre)

    In todays lesson we were searching for appropriate venues to film. we decided to film in kings cross outside of the Google headquarters. we had previously decided to film it in London bridge but we realized it would be too much of a safety hazard so we changed the location. We chose the location outside kings cross because it has a very aesthetic look. it has some tree's, grass areas, tables and chairs and a fountain running through the middle. the scenery matched the theme about romance and because it looked so nice, it would contrast more with the scene.
