The objectives that Oliver and I have created between us are as follows:
- By the end of this project, we will have created a 5 song EP for the band Dead Rooster.
- We will have looked into the production techniques of the producers that have worked with the bands that influence them.
- We will look into the commercial aspects of distributing a CD whether it be online or physical
- We will look into how Dead Rooster can grow their audience.
- We will look into the mix techniques of engineers in the rock scene
In terms of personal learning outcomes for this project I have come up with these four:
- I will have learnt about how smaller bands can utilise social media to grow their audience. (LO1)
- I will have learnt about how bands can distribute their music, whether that be physical CDs or via online stores, and what are the most effective strategies in today’s music industry. (LO2)
- I will have learnt about how modern rock music is mixed and the techniques that are used to make a great final product and apply this to our project. (LO3)
- I will have learnt about how a band can go about getting their music played on a radio station, and the things that must be done to make it radio ready. (LO4)
I have assigned a number to each of my aims so that when I create a blog post, the number in the title will correspond to a specific aim.
