Audio Recording and Beat Making - Youth Resiliency

(Ages 13-18) Cambia presents 8 weeks of programming for students who want to learn the ins and out of audio engineering, songwriting, and beat making, all while giving the youth within our community a voice to be heard. Students are given hands-on lessons in a state-of-the-art recording studio, learning from a professional in the music industry. While learning about the world of music, students will also be introduced to writing strategies, literary devices, and techniques to tell a story through the medium of music and rhythm. They will develop knowledge of the history of beat-making as they review some of the biggest hit makers that have curated the game. Students will leave this class with a set of skills that they can continue to grow own and explore this whole new world.
