FAQ

What is included in the 3 Pack?
The 3 Pack will include 3 Pro Tutorials. Each tutorial will be detailed study of a different track that will be featured on my 'Future Fantasy' Trailer Album.

These track are "On Conjuring" (posted above), "Get Up" & "Genetic Complexity".
I haven't finished the last 2 tracks since I am been busy getting the first Tutorial finished up for the enrolled students.

The 2nd tutorial will cover the details of the track "Get Up". "Get Up" is a Hybrid Mash-Up Trailer Track. This tutorial has come to be because many trailer houses are looking for re-envisioning of songs transforming them into a trailer music. Sometimes it requested as "trailer-izing" a pop/rock track.

For "Get Up", I have an original song I have produced which I will be showcasing how I go about all the details of trailer-izing it. Students will receive the stems from the original track and will be encouraged to have a go at trailer-izing the track, utilizing the tutorial as a guide.
Open enrollment is planned for end of July /early August 2018.
"Genetic Complexity" is Sci-Fi Rhythmic Trailer Track. Trailer houses often are looking for percussion-centric tracks with cutting rhythmic hooks and 'fresh' hybrid sounds. This tutorial will showcase the details of the music, again sharing a blueprint for students to utilize the concepts and structure to create a hybrid track of their own.
Open enrollment is planned for end of August/early September 2018.

All of the music in the summer Pro Tutorials are part of the same trailer album project, 'Future Fantasy," that I am working on so will they have some homogenous sounds and timbres that tie them all together.

Students signing up for the 3 Pack will receive a special savings rate just over the cost over purchasing 2 of the tutorials seperatly.

Got a question about the Workshop?

This Workshop has been designed for composers who have a basic understanding of how to use a DAW (digital audio workstation) with sample libraries and virtual instruments. No specific libraries are needed to start the Workshop. For the purpose of this course, examples will be show in Logic, but the lessons are universal for any DAW.
The modules have been design for easy entry for intermediate composers although working composers who are looking for specifics on the creation of 'On Conjuring' are sure to get a lot out of the lessons and guided walkthroughs.
If you have any questions about the Workshop please email the instructor.
