Monday–Ableton Live school
Today we watched a video of Ableton Live School . It’s a training centre in Sydney that provides music production courses. It’s quite a new concept (at least in Sydney) because they are only focused on one.thing.!!! And it’s something that traditional institutions might not be able to provide!
I like the idea of them employing people in the industry as instructors because that’s how students get to know what it’s like to be musicians at this time. I might be biased but I had a feeling that some music teachers were quite detached from the field. It is definitely a plus if teachers could stay active and creative while providing students with updated resources and network.
Wednesday-Project vol. 2
I’d decided what to do for my project! Since I’ve been hiding in my cave a.k.a my bedroom for the longest time working on my production skills, I thought it’d be a good idea to use my work for this assignment!
So my plan is to submit 3 tracks for my music tech class, and come up with a unit of study (for music curriculum ext. 1). Not gonna lie, I’m not the best at planning lesson so I will need some more help haha! I’m surprised that teachers should show the kids that we’re real musicians haha. Think I need to do more reading on it.
