Advanced Studio Production for Producers, Songwriters & Artists

Catalog description

The pillars of this advanced production workshop are experimentation and conceptual production for recording. This deeper analysis of our work will transfer to a more engaged stage application that we will discover through investigative practice. Using technology that meets each students’ requirements, the student will create a language and story for their compositions that will develop throughout the semester and eventually follow from the studio to the stage (and vice versa). This is a class where the student will become comfortable with their work, from a variety of angles and magnifications, so that they have more clarity of their capacity as artists, songwriters, and producers. Not only have the lines blurred for producers, but between the role of the artist, songwriter and musician alike. We are in an era where we have the opportunity to become self-sufficient in our practice, and take charge of our sound from a deeper perspective. The relationship we have to the production, as well as the technical and aesthetic control of that production, will help us to maintain a better communication with our practice.
