About our class
This course is designed to give students an overview of technical applications in both music and theatre arts. In this class, students will utilize digital resources to learn concepts related to aspects of studio engineering and production. In addition to audio digital recording students will learn sound production and engineering for school events, concerts and drama productions. Students will also utilize resources related to technical theatre to learn various aspects of theatrical lighting and sound design.
This course will also explore the fundamentals of creating and organizing music with computers. This is a project-based class in which students will use different software applications to create and arrange music.
Students will learn how to manipulate music by creating medley mixes, music re-arranging, and exploring the digital world of music. Digital audio and MIDI will be used and incorporated to create music files. Students will learn basic concepts on making beats and music patterns to be used in music production. Keyboard skills are helpful but not necessary.
Enrollment is open to all students, grades 9-12.
