In this tutorial, my learning objectives have been signed-off. Now I can begin researching more thoroughly for my project. I have also been given a few tips to help my meet my learning objectives. Firstly, I should keep a record of group meetings to help review on how I communicate with clients for LO4. I’ve also been advised to start making some music demos to share with my group as soon as possible.

I came to this tutorial with a few ideas of what to set as my learning objectives. My tutor helped me word them better to make them more specific. I’ve got to make sure they’re ready for send-off next week. My tutor also gave me a few pieces of important advice. Firstly, I’ve been advised to find another short film/animation to work on so that I’d have more work to apply my research to. Secondly, in the event that my clients’ audio requirements change and no longer suite my learning objectives, I am allowed to submit my own version of the work.

During the first tutorial, my tutor and I discussed all the initial steps I should take before proceeding with this project. My aim, learning objectives and learning outcomes need to be decided and written in my blog by week 4 at the latest.

We also debated on how I could record a piano for my project. I originally thought that MIDI would be a good choice as it would be easy to edit if required at any point during the project. However, my tutor has informed me that there are some acoustic pianos in the practice rooms. The might provide me with the best quality sounds.
