Our Producer Caps We're On Today!
This week, we met with Rose, who is an artist mastering her skills in vocal mixing, but today, we decided to put our producer hats on and went through the fundamentals of making a beat within FL Studio.
Some of the skills that were covered were using the Step Sequencer, arranging different patterns, and creating new melodies.

Flipside
This week, we focused on our final project. We decided to use some of our sampling skills to create different chops (melodies), and we were also able to come up with various drums patterns to enhance our project.

Ryan showed me 3 new beats that he made! Again, I was highly impressed. I helped him make the 808 patterns slightly more complex for the 3 tracks. I reviewed with him how to set up instrumentals for mixing.

Gabe started switching instruments to the Omnisphere instruments. There were many to switch over! I reviewed with him how to find specific instruments within the vast sound library. We discussed how to make selections based on qualities of the instrument. It is helpful to use the various organization methods within Omnisphere. I also reviewed with him how to use the quick sampler and how to add samples from my beat packs. By the end of the session the track sounded full of texture, emotion and energy.

Ty gave me the background story to the track we are recording. I advised on what octave to have it in. They previewed the track for me, it is captivating! We successfully recorded guitar part. We reviewed tempo setting and I also showed them how to time stretch, when needed. I reviewed with Ty some key techniques to control recording volume. I helped them begin recording the first verse. The track is coming a long quiet quickly!

I spent a sunny afternoon with David. He is very interested in learning how to make his own short film. We reviewed the In Progress website, learned how to make room and equipment reservations. We also talked about the overview of project planning, production and editing. He decided to start with a 1-2 minute project to get familiar with the process of creating a short film.

Did a re-orientation with Jemiyra, a returning IP music and visual artist, returning to In Progress to deepen her visual art and expand her skills. She will be working with Kris on developing her photography skill, merging it with her embroidery. We look forward to having her back in the space.

So proud to see this IP artist surround by family and friends as she presented her film "Bring Her Home" at the Minneapolis International Film Festival. She spoke to a large audience about her continued search for sister Nevaeh, and then later passed out materials and educated the public about how to protect themselves agains predators. Congratulations LaKaylee for your powerful work and thank you family for driving so far to show support. <3

Had a productive session with David this week, we went deeper into the basics of sound recording, warm up methods for singing and vocal range. He added some more vocals to his gospel cover of Hallelujah.

Got the opportunity to work with Nhoja as we reviewed proper exposure and light set up for her upcoming portraits session as she is preparing for her first paid gig. So excited for her as she ventures into this art form as a career option.

Had a very productive day with the interns this weekend.
We began learning about the podcast recording process and learned the DAW. The girls enjoyed reciting their scripts and developing their questions together. I was interviewed and the interns have plans to interview other In Progress artists in our Origin Stories podcast

Ryan showed me 3 beats he made since our last session. They all sounded great! Each track has a different feeling to it, I say he achieved his goal very well. We worked on making the 808 patterns more complex.
