AUD210 Week 7

This week was our study week for Trimester 3. During this week I began researching for my second project and I had my Transferrable Skills meeting.

For my second project in Studio 1, I plan on creating an EMP track. Project 1 was the first time I had ever really worked with electronic music production, and so for Project 2 I would like to create a trap/dance instrumental song while working as an individual. To begin preparing for this project I have begun researching how to create basic trap/dance music using protools and listening to different kinds of Electronic music to find sounds that I like and want to replicate. Some tracks/artists that have sounds that I like are:

• K-391

• TheFatRat

I’m nervous that once I begin working on this track that something will happen or I won’t understand something and then the track will turn out to be a very poor quality and it won’t be something I will be proud of or something that my peers and friends will like.

My Transferrable Skills meeting was also this week. During this meeting we spoke about which Transferrable Skills I felt I have good mastery over and which skills I felt needed improvement. The two skills I feel that need the most improvement are my Time Management Skills and my Self Confidence Skills. To improve upon my Time Management Skill I will actively begin using Trello and filling out more space in my google calendar. I also want to set more alerts to help ensure that I am on track for each task that I set for myself. To help build my Self Confidence I will ask my peers to give constructive criticism of my work more frequently so I can build more confidence in showing others my work.

This week I plan on finishing my pre-production sheet and completing a PowerPoint for the presentation on Monday.
