사운드웨이브와 비트: Bandlab으로 음악 제작(12주 과정)

I’m Paul and I’m excited to be offering classes in digital music here on Outschool!  I’ll be facilitating a variety of classes that will challenge your child's creative abilities.  

I’ve been teaching digital audio production for over 20 years, and have a Masters in Music Technology with a Film emphasis.  

Since I started, I've learned how to use so many tools including apps, software, plug-ins and tricks.  I've been around long enough to see music transition from Vinyl to Tape to CD to mp3 to streaming.  Although the technology has advanced, the process of creating and producing music is still the same.

Providing students with a platform to grow and cultivate their own passions in music and art has always been at the core of my teaching.  For most my career, I've used the project based learning method.  

I've conducted workshops in many educational settings such as afterschool programs, summer camps, non-profit centers and recording studios.  I've worked in schools, churches, youth centers, and alternative education spaces. I’ve also done my fair share of freelance audio production projects, and have even put out a few independent releases over the years.  

I’m a home school parent which also shapes my pedagogy.  Home schooling gives children and parents bit more freedom and control over their learning and career path.  (My 2 children attend classes on Outschool. )

My three levels of focus in the classroom have always been: 
(1) using the latest state-of-art-technology...which is constantly evolving 
(2) training students for technical careers in radio, tv and film 
(3) having fun 

One of the music programs that I am most proud of is Inner Power Records, where I managed the space and taught students the music production process from start to finish--enabling them to write, record, perform and release their own music.  You can listen to some of the music we produced at https://innerpower.bandcamp.com/

I'm an audiophile.  I collect records.  I enjoy artists like John Coltrane, Kokoroko, J Dilla, Bob Marley, Stevie Wonder, Robert Glasper, A Tribe Called Quest.  Anything with a good beat, I'm all about listening to.  I enjoy films too, one of my favs is Ghost Dog, ft. Forest Whittaker, soundtrack scored by The RZA of The WuTang Clan. 

I look forward to helping you learn whatever it is to get you to that next level.
