Become A Master IN MUSIC PRODUCTION
If you have been producing for some years, you may continue to run into some problems.
Mixing and mastering is still not quite to your liking, or you would like to be able to mix and master other genres as well
You are still too dependent on presets and other people's samples: your sound design skills are not yet where you want them to be
You still regularly run into writer's block
You would like to make (more paid) hours: mixing and mastering for others, sound with images (post-production & film music) and making samples, run packs and presets are then fun work that you can fill quite a few "holes" with.
You still know too little about song structures and songwriting
You still sometimes run into writer's block
Every time you are not sure whether your production is good enough or not
This course offers broadening and deepening in the areas of production, songwriting, mixing, sound design and mastering. The course is therefore only suitable for advanced students who can already produce tracks, but are still stuck in some areas, are not confident enough, and want to become more versatile. During this year we make sure you can work at a high level for yourself or clients.
You will be taught by specialized teachers who work for the biggest labels and producers. The classes are small and we try to make each class a good team so that you are in the group with like-minded people. That way you learn not only from us, but also from each other.
The training takes about ten months. You will receive:
30 lessons of 3 hours
private lessons with 100% focus on your music
One studio session per week in which you can do your own productions or collaborate
Access to writer's camps and networking drinks with fun bonus classes
Access to studios
Comprehensive teaching materials
Annual Soundgym subscription (hearing training).
Na het behalen van het examen ben je officieel Advanced Music Producer. Je krijgt ons vakdiploma; we zijn officieel beroepsonderwijs geregistreerd bij de CRKBO & NRTO.
WHAT'S IN THE CURRICULUM?
With this package, we offer you all the necessary tools to take your productions and skills to the highest level.
