AUDIO PRODUCTION BASICS PROJECTS

So far in my Audio Production Basics class we have learned the basics of control with Pro Tools. Pro Tools is the professionally used DAW, and with it we had to create a narrative only using sound with only a city image to go off on.  Here I have concocted a scene of a average overworked underpaid mother who is taking her child to school. She lands in the middle of traffic and decides to relax by listening to the radio. However, the channel she arrives on accidentely releases a rip in the space-time continuum and all Hell breaks loose. She then gets into a car crash and fortunately remains unharmed with her baby. Together the two run away from the catostrophe but find no hope of survival. The mother takes a gun from her purse, and tells her child "I love you" right before she shoots him.

The midterm project for the class was based on extensive research regarding a music producer who has worked with at least 3 different artists upon our choosing. My choice was Robert F. Diggs, more commonly known as the RZA. I tell the story of his upcoming and his founding of the Wu-Tang Clan as well as his latest work The Man With The Iron Fist (2012).
