Pupils will be introduced to the Mixcraft software and be shown how to create digital music using loops. This will give pupils the foundation needed to continue working with DAWs (Digital Audio Workstation) and progressing with more advanced techniques. 

Pupils will be introduced to sound design, the art of recreating sound for film. All pupils will start with the same starter project (Spiderman), creating the soundscape for a short film clip. Pupils will then choose from a selection of film clips to complete on their own.

Pupils will create an audiobook using pre recorded dialogue. Pupils will need to cut up the pre recorded audio and arrange the audio using the book as reference. Pupils will then process the audio appropriately for each character and add sound effects and background music.

Pupils will remix a song using a mix of original stems and new audio loops from the Mixcraft library. Pupils will need to follow the original structure of the song creating a verse, pre chorus and chorus for their remix.

Pupils will choose a video from Youtube and add commentary to it using microphones. Pupils will need to record, edit and process their own dialogue and mix it with the original video.
