August 6-8, 2022 – ORCHESTRAL MOCKUP PRODUCTION with Òscar Senén
Composers these days need to be able to create realistic mockups for their projects, regardless of these being recorded with real players or not: These audio demos are what director/producer will listen to, in order to make an idea of what the final score will sound like. And in the cases when it’s not possible to record with real players, that mockup will end up in the final dub, so every detail of the actual “performance” of the composer counts. In this course students will go through all the steps with Òscar Senén.
