Media And Music - DJing

2nd Week!
We met with Nigel and his assistant Ian from POINTBLANK to be our teachers for DJing. the lesson involved in what we already know about Djing due to our ressearch the week before. they taught us how to beat match and fade songs in. they also taught us scratching. they demonstrated all the techniques that we had to know. they told us about themselves and their works.
after a break we were given a task to learn how to mix and fade music and set up the decks and the mixer. we had to remember where every single wire goes to set it up correctly.

Every single one of us were not that confident in doing it because we thought that we wouldn't get it right but in the end we did it. we mixed two songs. the original one played and we mixed in a new song fading out the original one. All of us did this together and helped eachother aswell.

Media And Music - DJing

In The First Week Back To School!
We had creative and meida diploma again for the last time. In the first term we have a DJing course which counts for half a GCSE. Again we had to be split up into groups in terms of media and music
Before we could even start on the practical part we had to do a research on DJing, on what it is, the equipments, who created what and what the techinues are and what they do. we had the whole day to finish it and either do a presenntation in powerpoint or just a typing.
