In video production, the process of selecting music for projects can be tricky. While there are plenty of great tracks available on sites like AudioJungle that might fit your requirements, another interesting route is to create your own.
This course will teach you to create simple, effective cues in a short amount of time.
All you need to pull this off is a basic understanding of audio recording, a midi keyboard, a mic, and a friend who knows how to play a bit of guitar. We’ll fill in all the other instruments using a combination of free plugins and inexpensive virtual instruments. Once you see how simple this is, you will wonder why you have never done it before!
