My initial idea is to create a 3 track e.p, displaying all of my skills as a producer, sound engineer, and performing artist. The project will most likely be an Indian Project with one bhangra track, a dance song, and maybe a slow song.
The majority of the project will be done using the college resources, such as the studios and the Mac suites. For the collaborations I would like to find a singer to collaborate with me on a song, and also another producer to bring a different style to my music.
The project if completed in time and has a professional sound could make me money.
On the project I think I will develop some organisation skills, this is because I will be responsible for planning aspects of the project, such as bringing artist in for recording and working towards a deadline.
I think the project might be a solo project as people may not have the same agenda as me, when it comes to choice of tracks I would like to create.
I would like all the tracks on the ep to be originals, because I want to use to showcase my creativity and skills as a producer. So I can show to a potential employee or to a university.
My strengths would be that when given an objective, or target to work towards, I strive my hardest to achieve it, my main weakness would be that I have bad timing and tend to leave my work to last minute. To overcome this, I will set my self targets to have parts of the project completed by set dates, so I’m not working on it last minute.
Sounds great so far Arun, do you have any ideas on who will be your singer? and who might collaborate with you on production?

Arun - we are now 5 weeks in to the production phase, and the assessment brief asks for a blog entry documenting each week - and I don't see any from you!
ReplyDeleteYou have some catching up to do! Try and remember what happened each week in your recording sessions since you started back at college in the new year. try to remember any problems you encountered, what mics and recording set ups you used, who you worked with and what different roles you have fulfilled in the studio setting so far.
Photos (camera phone pics are fine) of your mic set ups would be good, too.
Eeek!
