PIF 3: 13th December 2018

What did you do?
For this session I wasn't there due to some personal issues but Hannah and La 'Deana had a workshop on logic 10 pro. La 'Deana, Blade helped Hannah rehearse her song for the performance which is going to happen on February 4th 2019. With the workshop they used buses in logic 10 pro.

what skills were you experimenting with?
They experimented with Buses on logic 10 pro, so they confined several recordings of each instrument into one controlled fader.

How was the session?/Any improvements needed?/ Happy with your track?
So since I wasn't there I don't know how the session went. Some personal improvements that are needed are I need to try to go in and if not then at least ask James (tutor) what they are doing so I can do something at home for college when I have time.

Research? 
Since I wasn't in I searched about buses on logic 10 pro and what they are and how to use them in logic 10 pro so I wasn't missing out on anything. 

Key words:
Buses- A bus is like a virtual wire that's used to send audio signal from one channel strip (the source)
to another (the destination). A bus channel is used to control the level and, if desired, add insert effects on the bus itself.they need  to be created individually like channel strips. 
Logic 10 Pro- is a digital audio workstation (DAW) and MIDI sequencer software application for the macOS platform. It was originally created in the early 1990s as Notator Logic, or Logic, by German software developer C-Lab, later Emagic. It became an Apple product, eventually known as Logic Pro, after Apple bought Emagic in 2002. It is the 2nd most popular DAW according to a survey conducted in 2015.

The boy who didn't look for a safe place to cross https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=67XsZ8lwORk . The boy who didn't stop, look and listen. Road Safety communication aims to in still good habits in young people when they start travelling on the road, helping to develop safe road habits and skills that will last for life. Road safety experts at the department for transport carried out research which showed that today's children aged 6-11 were not taking notice of traditional campaigns and needed to be 'shocked' with something more hard hitting. In 2007 57 child pedestrians aged 15 or under were killed, 1,842 seriously injured and 7,628 slightly injured- giving a totally 9,527 casualties in all. So the 'Think!' campaign kicks off with a pastiche of Hilaire Belloc in a film advert called: 'the boy who didn't stop, loo

PIFs

PIFs: Public Information Films are series of government-commissioned short films, shown during TV advertising breaks in the UK. The US equivalent is the Public Service Announcement. The films advise the public on what to do in a multitude of situations raging from crossing the road to surviving a nuclear attack. They are sometimes thought to concern only topics related to safety, but there are PIFs on many subjects, including animal cruelty, protecting the environment, crime prevention and how to vote in an election or fill in a census form. Many of these films were aimed at children and were shown during breaks in children's programmes during holidays and on weekends. Many of them involved or were narrated by celebrities of the day.  Cultural references- A number of musical artists have been heavily influenced by the analogue, over driven sound of British PIFs, including Boards of canada and most artists on the ghost box records label, especially the advisory circle, whose al

PIF 1: 29th November 2018

What did you do? We looked at two different PIFs and chose one to make music for. Kash was the leader of the team and he made sure everyone was involved. Kash came up with easy chords for me to play on the keyboard. Dakota helped Brant with the chords for the keyboard he played, than Dakota got the chords for the bass. La'Deana played the drums on logic. For my chords Kash put the keyboard on an organ sound to make the music more upbeat which went with the PIF. What skills did you experiment with? I experimented with different chords and effects on a keyboard to get the right sound because I don't know how to play the piano/keyboard, so this session was the first time I played. How session went?/Any improvement needed?/Happy with your music? The session went quite well since the team had a great leader. But there was one improvement which was the group didn't rehearse with the PIF playing in the background so everyone didn't know when to play and when to finish.
