Get ready for a fun-filled school holiday workshop where you'll learn all about creating cinematic sounds for movies and videos!Cinematic Sounds - Two day School Holiday Workshop at Newcastle Conservatorium of Music
Think of your favourite movie. If it had no sound or music, would it still have the same impact on you? Film music and cinematic sounds enhance character, create mood and heighten emotion in films. A soundscape can make or break a film.
In this two day workshop suitable for students aged 11-14 years, you will explore the work of film score composers, Foley artists, and the impact technology has had on the history of film music. Using computer software, you will learn to produce and arrange sounds, compose and record music, synchronize sounds to video, and create a film score soundtrack.
You don't need any experience but some musical knowledge and / or experience with Apple / Garageband will be an advantage.
Please arrive at the Conservatorium from 8:30am for a 9:00am start. Please bring your own lunch and water bottle, notebook and pencil and headphones. The workshop will end at 3:00pm both days.
