In alignment with STEAM curriculum standards, we offer Music Composition through Technology, iMovie Making and Digital Photography residencies utilizing Mac OSX, iPad and Apple iLife software that help to prepare students for the workplace of the future.
Music Composition Through Technology
(Grades 5-12)
Feel like a professional producer by learning how to use a Web-based Music Production program that allows even non-musicians to create music. This program works on all computer operating systems (PC/MAC) and syncs with mobile devices (Android/iPhone) as well. Students will learn how to arrange and edit tracks, along with basic production skills such as adding automation, equalization (EQ), compression, and reverb to add a unique identity to their songs. By the end of the residency, each student would have recorded an original music composition in a genre of their choosing. Students will also learn to create their own podcasts. Learn about this exciting computer program and how you can incorporate it into your curriculum to integrate technology and the arts.
Digital Photography & Digital Movie Making (Grades 5-12)
