Decades Project Evaluation

Decades Project Evaluation

Time Management
I did not complete the work on time, this is due to me not being as focused as I should have been from the beginning and my mac at home not being able to upload it to sound cloud, I did spend the majority of my time on one of the songs and all these mistakes will be a learning curve and in the future I will make use of all the time given to us to work on assignments given to us.

Technical Skills

Logic Skills

My Logic skills are fairly good, in the project I make use of the fading tools throughout the song where I thought was appropriate. Although I think if I could get my ideas down quicker it would help me throughout the project and allow me to have more time to work on the project. This has affected my project negatively as my project isn't on time.

Compositional Skills

My Compositional skills have a big room for improvement I have set targets to help my compositional skills and ultimately I believe if I improved my compositional skills I would have less issues getting my ideas down and lead to more sounds on my tracks. However keeping I have no issues with keeping in rhythm and sorting the arrangement.

Research

My main key artist would be Bob Marley and I tried to incorporate the bass he uses in his song One Love also I have Erykah Badu’s vocals on my first track. I spent a fair amount of time researching Bob Marley and I tried to integrate his scratchy style into my first track but I don’t believe it sounds that way, given another chance I would research more of his albums which use the scratchy style in different years rather than just the year we researched.  In the future I would spend more of the time we are given in college to work on assignments as something may go wrong when trying to bring work home.

How I Will Improve
I will improve by making use of the access time we are given, uploading my work earlier in case of technical issues at home, researching more about the albums we were given for inspiration, researching more chords so I can have more sounds on my track and writing how I created the track as I create the track so I'm not trying to remember at the end. I will also make sure I book more rooms so I'm not just limited to access time on Fridays and lesson times on Mondays and Fridays.
