What is it all about?
I do not expect anyone to have stumbled upon this page by
accident, but if you have your probably wondering what exactly is
Creative Sound Production? And why would it be of interest to me?
I will now briefly explain, and outline what kinds of subject I will be covering in this blog (and associated blogs).
Creative Sound Production is a term coined to cover a vast area of sound production, it involves elements of theory, practicle meathods/techniques and is also used to describe various jobs (vocational) done within the Creative Arts Industries.
To avoid confusion at this point I will give some examples of Creative Arts Industries : Film / Video Games / Drama/Performace / Live Music / Audio Production (as in albums etc) ...basically anything involving people using their imagination to apply sound effectivly and creativly to enhance a project.
Creative Sound Production may also be reffered to as Sound Production depending on the role/job you undertake Sound Engineering, the terms are interchangable however it should be remembered that confusion can arise within specific areas of work.
For example I have studied Sound Production, Creative Sound Production and Sound Engineering ...and their focus was in slightly different areas, while studying Sound Production I frequently worked in the capacity of a Sound Engineer ^_^ but I suppose at this point thats besides the point...
So now that we have that out of the way I will out line the general areas I will be blogging about:
The History of Sound Production - The facts and my views on them.
Sound Theory and Application - meathods & techniques.
Abstract Theory - My personal thoughts on sound.
Sound Synthesis - The holy grail of sound! *I cannot hold back my enthusiasm lol*
Recording techniques - Building upon 'theory and application'
Beginers Guide To Music Sound production - Everything you wanted to know but never thought about asking ^_^
Technology - Looking at the different types of technology available to you (encompasing all of the above).
Your rights as a creator of audable material - pretty much self explanitory.
Jobs - Different kind of jobs within the Creative Arts Industries.
