DIY Music Making Workshop | Creative Industries Festival
This workshop will go through the full process of developing a simple acoustic demo recorded on your phone (guitar+vocal) into a professionally recorded, produced and arranged song.
- We'll start with exploring the tools and mindset you need to apply to record and develop your ideas by opening an already finished project.
- Then we'll take a song we have in a form of a phone recording and re-record it in a professional studio, discussing all the details and techniques in the process.
- Then we'll bring the recording back into the classroom and edit it to get that “perfect take”.
- As the last and most complicated step, we'll build up our basic acoustic recording and develop it into a fully produced song.
Topics:
- * Introduction to Digital Audio Workstation. Ableton Live 11. Workflow. Hotkeys. Best professional tips and practices.
- * Art and Mindset of Music Production. How to channel your vision through songs. Basics of psychoacoustics. Musical storytelling.
- * Technology of Music Production. Digital Audio Basics. What gear you need to get started.
