Modules

YEAR 1 In Year 1, you’ll be introduced to the fundamental skills that make a great electronic music producer through practical and theoretical study. You’ll grow as a composer and producer, exploring new techniques in mixing, synthesis and sound design and deepen your understanding of the variety of ways that an electronic music producer can forge a career in the audio industry. Modules ● Studio Practice ● Electronic Music Production ● Production Analysis ● Mixing ● Synthesis & Sound Design ● Industry Foundations YEAR 2 In Year 2, you will expand upon the core techniques and theories learned in year 1 and begin to develop a more advanced set of skills. You’ll be introduced to hardware production and how that differs from producing in-the-box, explore the innovative world of immersive audio and how this can translate into your own works, and develop your live performance skills. Your industry knowledge will grow through the examination and completion of commercial projects and you’ll conduct a research project which will provide the foundations for one of your final year projects. Modules ● Hardware Production ● Immersive Audio ● Advanced Mixing & Mastering ● Electronic Music Performance ● Industry Practice ● Research Practice YEAR 3 In year 3, you will have the opportunity to channel everything you’ve learned in the first two years into a series of larger projects that are directly linked to your niche within electronic music production. You’ll be given the freedom to identify, research and realise a project that resonates with your passions and specialisms, alongside a more experimental and innovative approach to music/sound creation. You will also produce an extended research project, which can take the form of either a full written dissertation or a practical research project. Modules ● Innovation: Exploration ● Innovation: Realisation ● Investigation ● Professional Portfolio Development ● Professional Portfolio Delivery ● Research Project Programme structures and modules can change as part of our curriculum enhancement and review processes.
