Pop Culture: Music Supervision

As we continue down the path with our Create-a-Band bands, we're gearing for our transition into our next mini-units: film and television cultures.

Today we'll look at music supervision and Wednesday we will explore film scoring.

Head to our Pinterest boards and take a look at the series of articles I've pinned related to music supervision.  Pick one article and complete the Notice Wish Wonder graphic organizer shared with you in Google Drive.  (You'll need to make a copy that you can edit.)  We'll do a row together as a class to get you started.

OR

You may choose to sketchnote the article instead.  The goal is to demonstrate your understanding of the article.

Then we'll play around with music supervising a couple of different clips and discuss which of our bands would create music suited for which genres of films and television.

And we'll talk about possibilities for your music culture projects, due next Thursday, May 7.
