During Unit 7, the students will design a background music for a TikTok or other visual presentation related to their client from unit 6. They will again begin by interviewing the client or users of the client to empathize with respect to the mood that is desired from the music.
This is a collaborative project where students individually develop defined components
creating their own computationally looped beat for listener certainty
adding a conditional fill to their looped beat to provide listener novelty
creating a procedure to play a melody with their beat
based on their AGILE project management structure. Students prototype their beats and melody with the client or client user and revise based on feedback. Students use musical form to combine the individual elements defined above into a full background music composition.
